Which freedom(s) go(es)?



Poll: Americans favor freedom curbs

OKLAHOMA CITY, June 11 — Four in five Americans would give up some freedoms to gain security and four in 10 worry terrorists will harm them or their family, a new Gallup poll shows.
I have read that the real purpose of the Digital Millenium Copyright Act was to get the public used to "prior restraint" as a way of life. That is, you may commit a crime some day, so we get to stop you today.

Now people are willing to give up some freedom for some security.

Question: Which freedom(s)?
