Anybody remember the days when: - News of the USSR's fall was leaking out over USENET? - Folks were live posting from gas-proofed rooms in Israel, during one of the wars?

(Of course, removing DNS records doesn't effect connectivity.) Miles Fidelman Matt Hoppes wrote:

Information sharing should increase during wartime, not decrease.
Restricting information is more often the playbook of authoritarian regimes, and not something we should generally support.
