Our own form of sanctions
At the GNU Public Dictatorship we are nothing if not resourceful, which is why we are working with current world governments instead of supplanting them altogether. We figure that by leveraging the existing bureaucracy we should be able to further our own goals without having to foot the bill, so to speak. Anyway, this plan has worked well for us, and we have been able to accomplish much that your average fledgling dictatorship could only dream about. One such project has been getting the names of some of our enemies (think "Edgar") onto no-fly lists. Unfortunately, the ACLU has decided that, perhaps, the people on no-fly lists should have the right to contest their being on the no-fly lists. This, while it will make our task much harder, is probably the right thing to do as it discourages oppression, so we are encouraging this development, but we're not going to stop trying to get their names on the lists. We just hope that any innocent world citizens who happen to have the wrong names will understand the need for such precautions.
