Fortune-tellers, mediums and spiritual healers marched on the home of the British prime minister at Downing Street on Friday to protest against new laws they fear will lead to them being "persecuted and prosecuted."

Dressed in his squarest business suit, Ben Stein has heard about this controversy and so he sets forth to investigate - his clumpy sneakers striking a defiant note. As always he makes us laugh, less by his words than by the way he so plainly emphasizes them.
Can it be, when openness and diversity and freedom of speech are so admired, that a defensible point of view has been suppressed? In America? Ben can hardly believe it. We know it's true, of course, so we relish the prospect as he girds himself for shocking discoveries and starts knocking on doors in search of the truth.
What would happen if well-organised hackers - criminal syndicates, agents of hostile nation-states and even terrorists - disabled the computer networks that sustain the critical infrastructure of modern societies?
