Adams app-pulled

Ryan Adams has requested the closure of a fan website - one that he would sometimes post to. Dave Smith's ryanadams.org agreed to wrap up when Ryan got concerned about personal details (his) appearing online. Dave says it's not censorship:

“I just had a good discussion with Ryan about his concerns and reasons for requesting that the board be taken off-line temporarily. There's been a lot of talk about censorship and restricting free speech, but I can assure you he has no grand plans to silence the .org. In fact, quite the opposite, he sees it as a valuable resource, and has enjoyed taking part in the message board, discussing shows even when someone gives a negative review.”

Of course, Dave thinks it was Ryan who asked him to close the site; it could have been someone who stole his identity using information pieced together from the website.
