Virgin blocking wikipedia virgin_killer image

Whilst Virgin are blocking the page that contains the questionable image of the Scorpions album, they are not blocking the image. A Google images search can find many references to the image and you can see the image itsefl from the wiki servers:

Thus proving the censorship is not for the image but the content of the wiki page.

If you decide that an unelected body is going to be allowed to censor material at least do it properly. More people have now seen the (feely available) image than would have had the busy-bodies not interfered.

Big brother is out there just 24 years late.
