I've been talking about this for years. IT'S GOING TO HAPPEN, eventually.

There will be both negatives and positives, the positives being, they can block access to sites that share pirated content. Tubes, torrent listing sites, file sharing sites like rapidshare, file sharing forums, etc.

The negative being, our rights will be stripped and our access to the internet will be controlled by a "committee", and like with anything government controlled, it will be sloppy and unfair. They will ban access to sites with little or no explanation and no recourse by the site owners.
