Eagles' Don Henley: "Help us censor the Net, or you're a criminal!"

"So, Members of Congress, remember: doing the entertainment industry's
bidding is common sense. Listening to the "special interests" who
worry about freedom of speech and breaking the Internet? Well, that
makes you just as much a criminal as they are."
-- Nate Anderson (ars technica)

I promised myself I would not use any Eagles' song references in
responding to Henley's aggressively short-sighted, inaccurate, and
momentously greedy diatribe -- as described in and linked from
the referenced "ars technica" article.
However, when dealing with such wrong-headed and selfish thinking as
Henley's, you can easily check out of the controversy any ... time ...
you ... like ... ... ... but ... [fight it, fight it!] ... you ... can
... never ... [darn it!] ... ... leave. Phew.
