You missed my point. I am not a hardcore C-programmer, so i cannot
change anything in the Linux-kernel. But freedom nr. 1 is important to
me because other people can use it, and that indirectly affect me, and
because i have the possibility to change it. I don't think censorship is
okay, just because it does not affect me directly.

I never said the would. I just said, that i people here on this mailing
list appreciate freedom, and therefore would maybe like another place to
put their pictures, because i have read some criticism of Flickr on
Slashdot and Digg.

You have another wiev on this. So be it. I just think its wrong.
