Government completely lost it?

The internet has been a Wild West since its inception. The fact the West is now being tamed by government is not sinister or evil, it's just the natural evolution of things.

Obviously I like the Wild West aspect of the internet, but it would be grossly naive of me to think that situation could last. Order always asserts itself into the chaos.

Take your philosophical views and eat a donut somewhere else :mad:
 
Some people are so melodramatic. Yes we can protest if we don't like something and the newspapers do have freedom of the press - none of these are absolutes, but things can change if there is enough support.

I personally am very much a libertarian when it comes to digital rights issues. I'm against censorship in the way of content filters, but I can see why this may seem a good idea to some people ignorant of the issue.

Limiting it to 5 second clips, followed by a popup saying:

"Please select from one of the three surveys below to carry on watching this video:

- Give us your mobile number so we can spam you lots questionnaire
- Give us your email address to never win an ipad so we can spam you lots
- Give us your yummy yummy soul.. and win an ipad! For reals!"

Five seconds? Plenty of time anyway!
 
1) Government lets in loads of immigrants
2) Immigrants commit acts of terrorism and crime rises
3) "I know, lets block porn and people saying nasty things on the internet, that will surely solve our problems!"

True, i did have to faff around for a few minutes finding proxy websites for when Virgin banned some torrent sites but so far i'd agree with that

But now they are blocking the proxies, it's tres annoying, hence the need for a proxied browser instead of using proxy sites.

That you must have it activated on the line to be able to get over the filters. It's wrong allowing it to be open for anyone to know a site and get access to it no matter what age.

Why?

How does the existence of such sites negatively impact you?

It doesn't negatively impact me in any way at all. I'm against it.
