As the story goes, one of the main design concepts of the internet was to have a communications system that could survive a nuclear attack. Fortunately that feature was never directly tested. Now we are in the process of finding out whether or not the internet can stand up to sustained bureaucratic attacks.
Internet Crackdown in China
Yahoo vs. French yahoos
California Real Estate restrictions
Blogger detained in Bahrain
No private registration for US domains
Iranian Blogger Sentenced to Prison
Canadian Coverup
Harrassment of Malaysian Bloggers
ADDITION: Utah blog registration
At least nuclear warheads can be dismantled...

Ultimately, though, the internet *is* anonymous. Regarding those who got arrested... they should have been using chained proxies, and possibly encryption. Maybe we should start a campaign to educate those in oppressed countries about subverting internet surveillance?
Speaking of internet attacks.
