Secure Computing's SmartFilter is used by Iran and Tunisia to violate freedom of speech. Secure Computing's PR manager, Dave Burt, denies selling software to Iran but admits selling it to Tunisia - while being aware of its use.

Found you via a blog called "Love America First", to which I link. My first encounter with the Berkman center was through John Perry Barlow's site. Being an inveterate Deadhead, I was intrigued to discover that JPB had a blog and further intrigued by The Berkman Center. Keep up the good work!
