Repressing the Internet, Western-Style

but blokcing like egypt did is right? it was also "temporary block due to an extreme situation".

and what is "extreme situation" how do we define it.

Protecting innocent people and their property is the most important thing. That's Hobbes' Social Contract right there...

i dont call it a war. since the countries the military operations are in are no match for the usa.

More like WWWAM (world wide whack-a-mole), as we're just smacking down nations and dictators that annoy us.

The war on terror is the longest war in the history of the USA. We're not just smacking down with no problems. It's an actual war, being fought on several fronts, for many years. And lots of other countries are involved, both with and against us, and both in secret and openly.

We don't formally declare war anymore. This is world war 3.
