The EU

Google says the EU requires a notice of cookie use (by Google) and says they have posted a notice. I don't see it. If cookies bother you, go elsewhere. If the EU bothers you, emigrate. If you live outside the EU, don't go there.

Meanwhile, in Canada...

Over at Law Professor Ann Althouse's blog, we have this post.  "Mark Steyn and Ezra Levant testify about the completely out-of-control pursuit of hate speech in Canada."

A Mark Steyn quote:
As Canadians have discovered, liberty is lost very quietly and quickly. And trying to get it back is slow and painful — particularly at a time when artists, universities, publishers, and others who congratulate themselves incessantly on their truth-telling courage find increasingly pre-emptive self-censorship the better part of valor.
Down in the comments section I found this from a Mr John Lynch:
I think the root problem is the gradual redefinition of rights from things government can't do to you over to things government must do for you.
John Lynch has a shack there.  Right on target.
