As for me, I feel strongly both ways. The political shouters here are all
so eloquent and well-reasoned, I have to change my position constantly as
they persuade me first one way and then the other.

We'll put a new radio on you desk, a cold drink in your hand and music
to your ears!!!

Just the same, I've watched in the past when Mike Terry was attacked by the
right-wingers for making the same plea, and the usual right-wing suspects
jump all over him, justifying their political posts here by attempting to
tie them into what they hear on shortwave. And I find it amusing that none
of the usual right-wingers are coming to the aid of Yojimbo now, defending
his right to do the same.

I might have, except that it became apparent to me that he's a troll, and
so I killfiled him. So I'm not very aware WRT him.

I will NOT defend his copious copyright violations, nor his tactic of
flooding the group.

It's important to remember that while everyone has a right to free speech,
no one has an obligation to listen.

Well, John Kerry has nothing on you then.

By the way have you realized that you are an idiot, everyone else has.

BAD,

These Servers should provide 'interesting intelligence' and
their temporary elimination should disrupt the C&C function
of a certain group of users.

From the IndyMedia website:

Thursday morning, US authorities issued a federal order to Rackspace
ordering them to hand over Indymedia web servers to the requesting agency.
Rackspace, which provides hosting services for more that 20 Indymedia sites
at its London facility, complied and turned over the requested servers,
effectively removing those sites from the internet.

Since the subpoena was issued to Rackspace and not to Indymedia, the reasons
for this action are still unknown to Indymedia. Talking to Indymedia
volunteers, Rackspace stated that "they cannot provide Indymedia with any
information regarding the order." ISPs have received gag orders in similar
situations which prevent them from updating the concerned parties on what is
happening.

It is unclear to Indymedia how and why a server that is outside the US
jurisdiction can be seized by US authorities.

At the same time an additional server was taken down at Rackspace which
provided streaming radio to several radio stations, BLAG (linux distro), and
a handful of miscellanous things.

The last few months have seen numerous attacks on independent media by the
US Federal Government. In August the Secret Service used a subpoena in an
attempt to disrupt the NYC IMC before the RNC by trying to get IP logs from
an ISP in the US and the Netherlands. Last month the FCC shut down community
radio stations around the US. Two weeks ago the FBI requested that Indymedia
takes down a post on the Nantes IMC that had a photo of some undercover
Swiss police and IMC volunteers in Seattle were visited by the FBI on the
same issue. On the other hand, Indymedia and other independent media
organisations were successfull with their victories for example against
Diebold and the Patroit Act. Today however, the US authorities shut down
IMCs around the world.

The list of affected local media collectives includes Ambazonia, Uruguay,
Andorra, Poland, Western Massachusetts, Nice, Nantes, Lilles, Marseille (all
France), Euskal Herria (Basque Country), Liege, East and West Vlaanderen,
Antwerpen (all Belgium), Belgrade, Portugal, Prague, Galiza, Italy, Brazil,
UK, part of the Germany site, and the global Indymedia Radio site.
