February 21st, 2008  |  by Thomas Nybergh  |  published in in Finnish, internet, politics, suomeksi

Seuraava teksti on avoin kirje viestintäministeri Lindénille, aiheena Suomen KRP:n lapsipornoestolistan huonous ja sensuuri-innon yleinen vaarallisuus. Lukijat, jotka jo tuntevat tilanteen, voivat hyppiä suoraan kirjeeni ytimeen.

(Sensuurin uhreille [...]
