Government turn into a bunch of censoring cunts.

"The authorities are now able to blacklist and force offline certain websites without a trial."

If it's really limited to "websites featuring sexual abuse of children, offering details about how to commit suicide, encouraging users to take drugs and sites that solicit children for pornography." then fine, no need for it anyway.

What toht said

I don't think i've heard those words before

I wonder if this is anything like the UK where the actual list of sites blocked is a state secret. No possible opportunity for misuse there then...

 

[old.Tohtori]

Luckily opportunity for misuse doesn't equal necessary misuse

If we take the internet cynicism out of it.

 

[BloodOmen]

They claim it'll be for that but you just know it'll be used to knock other shit off aswell

Luckily opportunity for misuse doesn't equal necessary misuse

Show me a time when it wasn't like that.

Opportunity for misuse = misuse.

 

[old.Tohtori]

Doesn't equal necessary misuse. I never said it's not possible, likely, or the expected result.

Fast example would be; the government -could- tax half of everything.

 

[Scouse]

In real terms tax take is a lot more than half.
