Senator calls for The Anarchist Cookbook to be “removed from the Internet” | Ars Technica - http://arstechnica.com/tech-po...
"In the wake of the Thursday arrest of two women accused of attempting to build a bomb, Sen. Dianne Feinstein (D-CA) wrote on her website that the 1971 book on bomb making, which may have aided the terror suspects in some small way, should be "banned from the Internet.” The senator seems to fail to realize that not only has The Anarchist Cookbook been in print for decades (it’s sold on Amazon!), but also has openly circulated online for nearly the same period of time. In short, removing it from the Internet would be impossible. "I am particularly struck that the alleged bombers made use of online bombmaking guides like the Anarchist Cookbook and Inspire Magazine,” Feinstein wrote. "These documents are not, in my view, protected by the First Amendment and should be removed from the Internet."" - Jennifer Dittrich

Buried under that headline was that an undercover FBI agent supplied them with a copy of the text as part of an investigation. - CAJ was here
What, not Amazon? :D - Jennifer Dittrich
I used to love Feinstein but nowadays she just makes me cringe over and over. Her and Boxer. C'mon ladies, let's get our shit together. - Hookuh Tinypants
