SAVED

Yeah, I'm joking, but its really not that funny. In case you hadn't heard, the United States Federal Bureau of Investigation siezed several of www.indymedia.org's servers from a Rackspace office in the UK the other day. They've since been returned, which is kind. And now the good guys over at Electronic Frontier Foundation are checking for "optimizations" before them boxes get put back online. Good grief. You can follow the story here or here. BBC coverage is here.
