PRISON PLANET CENSORED

Prison Planet censored – according to the reports the website PrisonPlanet.com has been eliminated by Google along with Homeland Security. Prison Planet censored stories continue as the website has claimed the freedom to speech, acting more like a political reporting channel.

You should also be aware about the wikileaks story as well? Not only has that, quite a few torrent websites been shut down lately that enabled file sharing and other features. People wonder that Prison Planet censored is a step that involves the government.

Do you think that the government agencies have a hand in the shutting down of such engines that allow free searches on random postings and enable free downloads?

We do acknowledge the fact that Goolge is often under pressure from the government and they keep a close check on quite a few websites as requested to. Many people are thinking that is this related to censorship? But during these days the internet laws seem to be in a blurred state, well in most of the areas.

Now after blocking of a number of websites that sourced news, related articles, clips and audios people have been thinking if Google is evil? People are not able to access those websites to acquire knowledge and updates regarding current affairs and general news.

These practices have leaded a question and highlighted the issue known as freedom of expression and speech. May be the information shared by the websites in question is meant to be confidential and not to be shared with the civil society? May be the shared information can cause threats to the nation?
