NPOV[edit]

This article seems to not have a neutral view. The wording in the following sentence implies a non-neutral view in a way that is hard for me to describe. Here is the quote: "They then compile a report on how biased and repressive the filtering software is." I think that a better way to say this would be to say something like: "They then compile a report stating that the filtering software is wrong and is biased/repressive." I would change this, but I'm not sure it'd be taken as a serious edit. Xonybubba 16:06, 14 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I'm not big on editing wiki sites, but the line about peacefire defending "first amendment rights for internet users" could perhaps be changed to "first amendment rights for American internet users" or something equally global that accepts that many of us aren't American. Perhaps there is a mission statement, or are peacefire only concerned with the US? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 212.50.173.84 (talk • contribs)

Global perspective[edit]

You are sorley mistaken peacefire and its affiliates have fought relentlessly for the freedom of other nations like china and south korea in their campains to censer the internet. Peacefire is a respected organization as its founder this article must stay and survive for the freedoms of all people to working forward to a better world the same goal as wikipedia.

-- danieljackson (tlk) (cntrbtns) 06:10, 5 March 2007 (UTC) Yes, but the point is that there are no "First Amendment rights" except under the US constitution, which doesn't affect the 6+ billion human beings who don't live in the US/aren't US citizens. This could be rewritten better if peacefire.org really is active for the rights of all internet users, not just those in the US. -anon —Preceding unsigned comment added by 194.73.121.7 (talk) 11:57, 24 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Bennet Haselton[edit]

Why does Bennet Haselton redirect here?. I know this is a big project of his but wouldn't a seperate article on this man autobiography be better?. I would do so but I'm not how much of a controversial edit that might be. Nateland 21:04, 7 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Hostile website[edit]

When clicking on the peacefire external link, I get:

Reading that message closely, all see it saying everything not checked is going to be regarded as suspicious - that doesn't mean it's saying the site is known to be problematic. -- Seth Finkelstein (talk) 01:24, 24 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]
