Winning The War On ... Innocent Websites

The war on terror has taken more casualties, in the form of innocuous websites.  The Department of Fatherland Security is out of control:
The Department of Justice and Homeland Security’s ICE office proudly announced that they had seized domains related to counterfeit goods and child pornography. What they failed to mention, however, is that one of the targeted domains belongs to a free DNS provider, and that 84,000 websites were wrongfully accused of links to child pornography crimes. 
Shutting down websites for fake products is a job for a company civil attorney, not a job for the government.
