Or rather, since when did it become okay to censor "questionable"
websites like Boing Boing -- for everyone -- in the name of
"...protecting the children"?

Personally, if there were other, paid services available at DIA
I wouldn't care -- that why I also belong to the Wayport network.
Sure, it's not in every airport, but it is at SJC (where I live)
and they don't try to hobble connectivity for everyone in the
name of "...protecting the children.." which is farcical on its
face.
