Paul, my question has always been, isn't there a way to control foreign sites in the US?

I mean...... there are only so many communication channels for this stuff to get to the US (primarily a few giant cables running across the ocean floors). The owners of those cables have servers/routers/controls that I'm guessing would allow them to filter foreign traffic???

Why can't/won't the US gov't just filter out such sites?

I'm sure my question is entirely too basic and simplistic, but it seems like a reasonable thought.
