This is another example of government's misuse of hard earned taxpayer money. The government has no business whatsoever spending tax dollars to finance a web site that promotes litigation for profit. The government's sole purpose is to protect us from crime and foreign invasion, not to promote civil law suits.
The only problem with internet only notices is that they can easily be corrupted and hidden behind many walls with links and hard to find. Notices should be done both ways to insure the integrity of what is being posted on the internet. Printed documents are much harder to alter or change where internet posting can be full of errors and misinformation and easily hidden from the public under layers of links and web addresses.
Is this a good way for government officials to start shutting down newspapers? By restricting government funding, officials can start to eliminate those pesky newspapers that challenge their behavior. Yes, by officially posting things on a web site, officials can say that information is available, but that information can be changed easily on a daily basis. 1984.
