hot damn, if they can really arrest people for exposing human rights abuses and criticising governments then everyone on this site better get running!

seriously though, i don't think it'll be too long before sites like this will be regulated/shut down because they could be a 'threat to national security'.
all anyone has to say is that ATS is a breeding ground for anti-Americanism and terrorists, and they'll already have most of the public screaming for our heads.

Here's the scary part.

...In the last four years, British, French, Canadian and American bloggers have also been arrested. ...

Now, where was that thread that asked "How have you been affected by the Patriot Act"....?
