Governments who do not allow the proper, open operation of the internet, should be banned from using it. Like it or not the Internet was created by Americans, it was nurtured with American ideals of freedom, and countries who refuse to allow those standards should be barred from participating. I think this would have a positive effect in the long run, the way economic sanctions sometimes work.

A few years ago I'd never have proposed this.. but the willingness of second and third world governments to abuse the internet for their obviously crooked purposes has reached a fever pitch in recent months.

slightly unrelated, but interesting, those same countries produce most of the world's spam and viruses.

edit: I wonder if it'd be feasible to ban corrupt governments from the internet while allowing citizens access.
