Outlaw,
I respectfully disagree. This is the worst thing the Society could have done (for their long time adherents) but the best thing for the exJWs.
Reason being, just going on the internet and Googling "Jehovahs Witnesses" will bring up a plethora of anti-JW sites.
It's not like going to a library and having to really look for anything anti-JW. With the web, it's instantaneous.
They are helping the flock get online, but how many will start getting bored during meetings and browse exJW sites on their tablet?
We have a few that accidentally came to this site and are now members.
Also, the JW religion lacks the human element of social life - there is no active program for helping seniors, teens, single parents etc, so JWs will still be starved of human contact unless they have made their own arrangements.
