No, really. You couldn't make it up. Check outwww.tubenightmare.com

You couldn't make it up, but you could sensationalize it. I'd like to
see the actual text of the requested injunction, as opposed to somewhat
vague newspaper reports. And if it is as broad as people fear, then it
seems really unlikely that a judge would approve such a thing.

It's the usual stance of an oppresive government -- make life illegal,
then cherry pick who you don't like, and the rest will be too scared
to compain as they are breaking the law anyway.


The government isn't doing this.
