I know that the internet is being "censored", probably by the right wing United States government, but probably also by the "World Government" that some people
say doesn't exsist. (SURE IT DOESN'T) My question is how can I bypass governmental
controls and reach the TRUE internet unhampered by this country's current political
atmosphere? Is there a way to access the 'net free of this encumberance? Possibly
free of charge? It seems that when I try to access a site that may be UNAMERICAN
(In who's view?) I am either kicked off or redirected to a site in my own country!
One last thing, Where does all the money go everyone pays to access what should be
a free service? We pay the I.S.P. and they pay someone ,,,,,and then? Who is the
main benifactor?

I'm not sure what kind of censorship you're talking about, though the US government is certainly trying to take down "obscene" sites, even diverting resources from the war on terror to do it. The US has it much better than many: Other governments are worse, blocking entire harmless areas of the Internet that they disagree with. I've never had the problem you describe living in the US, but if you are having such problems, try looking into proxy servers or anonymizing sites.
