Coming soon: enforcement. It will become illegal to have the letters "C" "O" and "M" on your keyboard, to prevent you accidentally typing an unauthorised URL.

Wouldn't it be easier and more discouraging to simply cut off the fingers of disobedient users?

Isn't it usually the politicians, who wave at the people? And they still could clap... One doesn't need fingers to clap. :)

not if you are North Korean there waving is the standard default, and you must cry on demand too (or else we will give you something to cry about - wave byebye to your family)

Can't quite see what fingers have to do with waving ones hand. I don't see any nescessity of fingers in this hand waving business at all. In fact having no fingers would be an improvement as it would be impossible to make fist and wave that at the politicians. ;P :-D Cheers!
