Freedom.

I'll just leave this here.

"Since May 2014 Thailand has been ruled by a military junta, the National Council for Peace and Order, which has partially repealed the 2007 constitution, declared martial law and nationwide curfew, banned political gatherings, arrested and detained politicians and anti-coup activists, imposed internet censorship and taken control of the media."

There are men, somewhere, quietly hoping that without Swartz's articulate voice, the next iteration of internet censorship will eek through before it gets noticed.

be scared, be very scared. there are boogymen everywhere. support internet censorship...err.i mean "security".

and if someone hacks your bank account that quickly, more than likely there are more problems than just your vigilance.
plus i'm not impressed that someone can find pics of me on facebook

Thanks!

Friends,

Quick request: Wikipedia is considering going dark to protest SOPA and PIPA, the Internet censorship bills.

It'd be huge news, jar rank-and-file Internet users out of complacency, and serve as a turning point in the effort to beat these bills.

Several sites are considering going dark next week -- Reddit's already pledged to do so, but to have the impact it'll take to kill SOPA and PIPA, we need much broader support. A blackout by Wikipedia could be what finally kills these bills.

Will you click here to urge Wikipedia to go on strike to protest censorship?

Thanks!

The Wikileaks site (http://www.wikileaks.org/) is now down. Welcome to the world of Political Internet Censorship.

Fox serves many of there interests all at once. They get to air the video for sex appeal and ratings, they get to complain about the video for shock, outrage and yet again, ratings. They even get to have a some privacy lawyer that doesn't know the internet from a toaster to promote internet censorship laws for the benefit of the corporate network masters. All in a days work.

Ha ha, I'm terribly sorry spoco2 I did think you might have seen this/sifted it before I did, and afterward I thought I might ask you about it, but forgot. Thanks a lot for that promote and if it's any consolation I'd still pick Australia as a place to live after almost any other country (dumb internet-censorship laws are being pushed through almost everywhere these days, you know)

By the way, I knew some internet censorship sensationalism would make me hit top 15 at last. Thanks for the votes!

There is a very good possibility that the World War III option is an attempt to control the Internet by eliminating Net Neutrality and online free speech. It appears that the boundaries set between countries through treaties are vanishing due to the exponential dissemination of information through the Internet. This is in conflict with the wishes of the oligarchy who are willing to do anything to maintain control. The attack on the Internet is three-pronged, it involves bandwidth throttling by ISP’s, Internet censorship by governments, and the oligarchy trying to prevent Network neutrality.

The Boycott of Google & Youtube is ON due to their evil behavior. Specifically, Google is using YouTube as a trojan horse to display advertising on explicitly non-commercial websites who support their embeds. The final straw in our reluctant cooperation with these evolving schemes is their destruction of video loops by blocking half the screen with a large ad that can not be closed: Genius!

Ha, okay.
Then I completely agree, and thanks for expanding my vocabulary!

Don't mind me, I'm overfilled with bile with my recent attempts to fight internet censorship over here in Far South China... err, Australia...

CyberTerror.
Do some research, i wont talk about it any more.


I know what cyberterror is. I also know that supposedly the U.S. is engaged in hacking and shutting down Al-Quaeda websites. But that's not mentioned in this video, so I was wondering why you chose to include it in the w.o.t. channel.

I do give you props for your 007-ish "I could tell you but then I'd have to kill you"-style answer though.
