Ah, one of those. Complete with its own secret 'we-can't-tell-you-what-we're-not-letting-you-see' blacklist?

Yup. I'm told you're getting similar soon by law—this is just voluntary, there's a fuss kicking up about it as it's stopping a lot of people (including me) from editing Wikipedia at all, which is annoying (I rarely edit, but I've been planning a set of local articles recently).

It's been done so badly it's devalued the idea at all, which is interesting to see.

And I'm rather hoping otherwise - which seems to mostly mean hanging my hopes on a ZOMGconservative senate. Sadly, there's been a near-total lack of fuss so far.
