Great doc. I have to say the protesting got to a point where the cops had no choice but to act. You guys provoked them. I agree with your documentary's points about censorship, but ultimately the web is free and circumvents the FCC anyway. Also, there are legitimate and legal, albeit slow-moving, ways to change the FCC and the WTO. Blocking the entrance to their meeting...what do you expect? They're just gonna say "Oh gee, there are people in the way. Well I guess the meeting is off... You know what? Lets just disband the whole organization. People made a ring around our building, so we should all go home." That is dumb.Sorry just wanted to say that... otherwise, though, I like the rebellious attitude and this doc was super interesting and fun to watch. Great job! I welcome a debate if anyone disagrees. I really wonder how people can justify baiting the cops and then spinning what happened. Its similar to the local news spinning the vandalism. Seems hypocritical to me.

This film was made in 2006. In 2011 Obama signed in the "Local Community Radio Act" (with strong support from both Democrats and Republicans). The act essentially allows LPFM stations with minor regulations. The act promises to allow the opening of thousands of LPFM radio stations across the country.The rest of the rules are still being worked on (support NGO's that advocate free media to lobby these meetings and regulators) and so it is important the process is watched closely.If you want a station for your community, start Googling for more info and be one of the first people to have a legal LPFM station (well since the 1930's). The FCC is expected to give out thousands of these licenses sometime in 2012. If you have a big community, the competition for these licences will be tough so get started now. Our communities could have dozens of new local FM radio stations in a couple of years.

At first I loved this movie, then the hypocrisy came....The premise of the movie is essentially freedom. Freedom to use the airwaves.
Get the government out of the way, get rid of the repressive laws, etc.Then they started talking about the WTO and how it was awful and how micro-broadcasters could stop the WTO. The problem? The WTO is all about encourage free-markets by getting repressive laws out of the way of free-trade.You'd think that pirate broadcasters, who are against government interventionism, would also champion removing restrictive laws from ALL aspects of life, etc.
However, these guys ONLY seem interested in removing such laws from THEIR particular interests.....Freedom is freedom. Restrictive laws are restrictive laws.
If you won't fight all such laws, then you can't say that you're for pure freedom.....
