Daniel_Stuckey writes "To fend off the chilling effects of heavy-handed internet restriction, the UK consumer rights organization Open Rights Group wants to create a new version of the '404 Page Not Found' error message, called '451 unavailable,' to specify that a webpage wasn't simply not there, it was ordered to be blocked for legal reasons."

For those who missed the reference and didn't click the links, this is a reference to Fahrenheit 451.
Anyone who didn't get the references need to: Go back to highschool chemistry, and read more books.
We can't!

Better idea: open up a 600 "Non-Technical Fault" range. You could even go into more detail: a 600 error could be a generic block, while a 620 might mean "Copyright Infringement", a 630 "Terrorism" or even a 666 "Satanism and/or Heavy Metal".
