Why is it O.K. for a multi-billion dollar company to sell and distribute information over the internet that will help aid and abet "terrorists"; but not O.K. for some teen to post a reference on his WWW site linking it to a site that contains similar information?

Now that Sherman Austin is going to federal prison, will I now have to go to Amazon.com and buy what books I need to make pipe bombs, cook up exotic poisons, and create other things that will make me an expert at murder and mayhem?
