[At-Large] [ALAC] Fwd: A million domains taken down by email checks

[Carlton Samuels]

...Hmmmmmm. I would say they are binary and always yoked, even if uneasily
so!  One long-time jurist had a pithy response in one instance; freedom of
speech has an attached responsibility of not "falsely shouting fire in a
crowded theatre".

Here's another of my favourites. I'm for freedom of religion, so long as
you're responsible enough not to insist I must bend a knee to your damned
foolish one.

I could go on.....but the 'right' to a domain name instituted in a commons
surely does have responsibilities!  At least, in the public interest.
