Most of the info helping spread the story are net based. Would he kill freedom of info to slow us down?

1. Like all tyrants, yes he would.
And he'll probably send in the National Guard under cover of darkness. Like all cockroaches, he prefers the dark.

6. Of course he would
And what's scary is that after all this is over, I imagine some lawmaker(s) will try and make a law which does that very thing.

7. Today? Hell, he would have used it five days ago!
This Internet Machine is a dangerous thing, it is. At least to the slime we've allowed to rise to the surface.
