Wikipedia is available to everyone. So far, the threat is completely
hypothetical: no school has blocked Wikipedia. Maybe, before rushing to
action, we should give schools more credit. If indeed at some point
some school blocks Wikipedia, we can, after reaping the benefits of a
nice New York Times article and ACLU lawsuit, set up your edupedia in a
matter of weeks - the sifter code is already in place.
