RE: free speech

SI and other unmoderated news groups are (near) perfect realizations of Milton's Areopagitica:

"Though all the winds of doctrine were let loose to play upon the earth, so Truth be in the field, we do ingloriously, by licensing and prohibitions, to misdoubt her strength. Let her and Falsehood grapple: who ever knew Truth put to the worse in a free and open encounter."

Of course, John never had the opportunity to fight MSFT operating systems.
