This is what I get while trying to watch Heros and Dexter from 'Project Free TV'. The above says: "This site is currently blocked. The site falls under the 'Prohibited Content Categories' of the UAE's Internet Access Management Policy". There goes a piece of my personal freedom...But dear friends, not to despair, there are many, many other ways to get my favourite TV shows. I will not be easily defeated. Nothing comes between me and Dexter!
PS. Censorship really really sucks. Just because they censor it, doesn't mean I can't get it... as a librarian trained in the 'intellectual freedom' tradition, censorship is one of the things I am having a hard time dealing with. It's very much a part of reality here... sigh.

Well, as my dear friend Jakob pointed out... streamlining video DOES violate copyright laws... but who thinks about that when you are thinking about DEXTER?!?!?!
I was going to ask you about the TV situation. That's nuts. I'm surprised they let you access Facebook.
