I'm not sure about the others, but NASA is technically not a government agency. It is private, but I believe they do get a lot of government funding.

Actually, NASA IS an independent federal government agency. See http://www.usa.gov/Agencies/Federal/Independent.shtml :)

For instance should American companies (Sun, Cisco, Yahoo! & Goodle) assist the Chinese government in censoring web access. They block access to words like 'Dalai Lama' and 'democracy.' http://astore.amazon.com/syrtronics-20/detail/1111534128?
