Wonder how true this is. Apparently, if you join scientology, they give you a CD to install with their custom software on it.
Part of the software includes a modified parental censoring program, normally used to block porn sites and bad language.
Quote:
Scientologists who have unknowingly installed the censoring device onto their computers have these strange results on the Internet:
*
On the Web, censored sites and search engines such as Operation Clambake - The Inner Secrets Of Scientology, Enturbulation.org » Scientology Activism and Organization, FACTnet : Cult, Cults, Abuse by Religions, Abuse Recovery Discussion & Resources, Peer-Support, Legal support, and Google Groups are simply not accessible. It is as if web pages critical of Scientology do not exist.
*
On pages which are accessible, censored domain titles, words, and names are listed as blanks. For example, "www.xenu.net" might read " . . ". In addition, certain terms cause web pages to stop loading altogether.
*
In IRC discussions, some censored words appear blank, while others - such as Xenu, Wollersheim, and Erlich -- immediately disconnect the censorwared user from the channel. According to formerly censored ex-Scientologist Charlotte Kates, "It was nearly impossible to converse on IRC with the filter."
*
As for email, Scientologists with the filter program are unable to send or receive emails to or from people or web sites that Scientology has censored. So cult victims cannot converse with anyone the cult disapproves of, including exit counselors and victim-assistance organizations.

If this is true, we need to flood IRC channels with the word "xenu" and watch for people instantly disconnecting
