I'm not very surprised at the list of companies supporting the "censorship", Microsoft has always thrown its weight around enough to wet an appetite and make people see things their way.

My question I suppose is where are the checks and balances? Now what is to keep a small network of security companies and Microsoft from filtering out so much information that crackers can run rampant within our National Information Infrastructure?

I cant answer your last question.
