Could Edward Snowden explain this ? Big Brother is watching all dangerous pacifists ?

  Bob, the depressing news about Fallujah revived my interest in the movement against another futile war in another era- Vietnam. I  bought an old copy of Ron Kovic's classic " Born on the Fourth of July " at my favorite place in downtown Providence, the Cellar Door Book Store.  I reread  Kovic's pathetic story over the weekend. This morning I went to  Google to get an update on Ron Kovic, a guy now just about my age. I  tried to click on the rest of this  : " Ron Kovic-Breaking the Silence in the Night.....Disabled Vietnam War veteran and anti-war activist Ron Kovic became a pacifist after seeing what war does to civilians ".
     Now this has happened to me before when seeking background  information on prominent left-wing activists in the United States : A message - ACCESS DENIED ...
                      " Internet access to  the requested website has been denied based on your user profile and organization's Internet Usage Policy ". ( suggestion- I am seeking out pornographic material ? )
             Is there something pornographic and obscene about pacifism and anti-war organizations ?    I thought you might be interested in this.  And maybe the notorious traitor -or whistleblower Edward Snowden. Most Americans see him as a heroic whistleblower. Big Brother is watching innocuous Me ?
