Domain suspended? Censorship issues? New website

[lothos]

Hi Guys

A while ago I posted a thread on here looking for links to news and sources of domain name censorship, registrars suspending domains, stuff like that.

I've got a blog up now (see sig for link) with a couple of censorship news stories up. Not really happy with the format, thinking of moving to a different design (something custom, a wiki, not really sure yet) instead of a wordpress blog. Suggestions are welcome.

I'm working on adding a couple more pages such as a "report card" on how free speech friendly the registrars are, a page listing where some "controversial" domains are registered, etc. Eventually I want to have a wiki that lists each registrar with each incident they have been involved in with links to news articles, etc.

Any comments or suggestions on the website are appreciated.

Also, I'm looking for more sources of news. If you've ever had a domain suspended because of the domain name or the content on the website I'd like to talk to you. Feel free to PM me. If there's any recent incidents that I've missed I'd appreciate links also.

Thanks!

IDK why the thread was moved exactly, but I'm guessing the legal part of the forum is for legal matters (law?) and not about critiquing sites that deal with the same.

I'd highly recommend some type of breadcrumb system in the event you have a "read more" page + add a "Home" link under the main menu.

Did that theme come with a psd or anything? I think a customized logo would do that well (to blend it in with the headers background).

Good start!

Hi very interesting topic

This guy has a lot to say about censorship, and he really identifies the issues http://sethf.com/

An interesting topic I have seen discussed on forums is what exactly is in registrars TOS - many give themselves the right to cancel your registration if - in their opinion - you have offended someone.

A post comparing registrars' TOS would be very interesting and attract traffic.

I'll send you some more links by pm - sometimes if you post links in threads the NP filter (censor?) freaks out and posts may not appear.

Thanks for the PM Carob. I definitely am planning on comparing registrars and doing a "report card" on each. Thanks for the help and suggestions
