The mayor of Los Angeles, an energetic fellow, has proposed that the city provide free high-speed wireless Internet connections to every Los Angeleno. Sounds great! I could dump my expensive cable modem connection … assuming Mayor Villaraigosa would allow me to look at my own website.Which is a big If. Colby Cosh recently pointed out that Saskatchewan’s new municipal Wi-Fi networks ban citizens from visiting "sites associated with pornography or hate groups." One of the banes of my career is dealing with private censor companies that ban iSteve.com, such as the one that explained "The main goal of SiteCoach is to filter pornographic content and content glorifying violence, as well as right-wing and other so-called forbidden content that 'hits below the belt'." Who knows what Mayor Tony’s taxpayer-paid service will allow? Free Speech and Free Wi-Fi are antonyms.
