Operation Pipe Dreams — Ashcroft is keeping the world safe from Internet bong-retailers (I know they were keeping me awake at night.) This Voice of America article says:

Mr. Ashcroft says customers who want to visit some of their favorite drug paraphernalia websites are in for a big surprise in the days ahead. They will be automatically redirected to the website for the U.S. Drug Enforcement Administration.

I tried some of the sites named in this Guardian article on the subject, but it’s not happening yet — they’re just down.

And given the national climate, now I’m wondering whether I should’ve used my anonymizer subscription to even look.
