In boxing, there is a big difference between a knock-down and a knock-out. A knock-out is an automatic victory.<\/p>\n

The Canadian Association of Internet Providers<\/a> has a self-governing policy that knocks down websites that contain potentially illegal content, or content that contravenes the ISP’s acceptable use policy.

But in fact, the internet is no safer from these exercises.<\/p>\n
