I also keep wondering why people insist on buying those Ithingies from Apple, knowing all content is censored... I had expected a much greater outcry...
Government and big corporations, intertwined as they are now until becoming practically the same matter, are actually different. Government has no willing stockholders, but they have vassals who must pay a ransom for mostly unwilled services, plus they get all things censored and much worse than that, rated by content (a much more refined and devious way of censorship).

At least with Apple you can choose to buy the iS**t or not (pun intended, I am very happy with my censorship-ridden iPod touch).
