    I don't think they're too worried about opposition from these companies. As long as the party controls the federal government they have the power to remove the protections that make these companies so rich, as a user mentioned above. As soon as Facebook or Google started "pumping money" congress could get something moving.

    It seems the question is this: has the government been justified in declaring the documents Assange has leaked classified? If so, prosecute away. If not, then our government will be setting a moral and public precedent that allows them to declare any material off limits.

    I left /r/StarWars for the same reason. /r/MawInstallation was great for a while (and still produces the odd gem) until it too became flooded with debate and confusion about new vs. old canon. I hope that any topics on Tildes are focused on analysis and discussion like /r/DaystromInstitute and /r/MawInstallation instead of /r/StarTrek and /r/StarWars.

    Cosplay posts have their place in cosplay oriented forums but contribute little to places of discussion on their subject matter.
