Re: Ellison Lodge’s Column: David Keene And The American Union Scandal: Before FedEx There Was Immigration
It seems no good deed goes unpunished.
Just after your column exposing the lobbying efforts of UPS to impose more onerous regulations on Fedex, I discovered that the FedEx Office locations in northern Virginia that I use to access the Internet and VDARE.COMhave blocked your site and labeled it "extremist".
Interestingly, I could log onto American Patrol. As a cautionary measure, I called Glenn Spencer to alert him that his webpage might be the next one taken down.
So far, I have found the block at two FedEx/Kinkos stores so far. If VDARE’s articles are available in an e-mail newsletter format, I would like to sign up.

Peter Brimelow comments: Censorware is a continuing problem for us, and we are always grateful to readers who report it — the corporate suppliers usually back off when threatened by our lawyers. (Reader Sparks tells us FedEx now seems to have relented). See VDARE.com Censored by Corporate Softwareand Internet Filters — Private Sector First Amendment Workaround, or Gov't Censorship In Disguise? by James Fulford for a discussion of this, with notes on how to deal with these filters.
