Policing the freedom of the internet - Inside Story Americas - Al Jazeera English: The United States Department of Justice is under increasing scrutiny over its unwavering determination to prosecute internet journalists and activists, especially those who challenge what appears to be the abuse of power by corporations and the government.
Those accused of the alleged crimes - described by many as trivial - face years in prison and relentless pursuit by the authorities.
The latest example involves the sentencing of 26-year-old online activist Andrew Auernheimer to three-and-a-half years in prison for obtaining the personal data of thousands of AT&T's customers.
