Figures. The two thieves are actually really thieves. One's probably his lackey; the other, the boss. The boss has a syndicate in Malaysia, and his identity here is a farce.

I hope they die together in hell for all the fuck ups they gave us to handle. Let them burn in unholy unity! AHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

Slight happy is that the video also says that it is not exclusively bad.

But the main problem with this kinda things is that it's all decided by old people saying "LULZ INTERNET = BAD CUZ PRON AND PAIRATEZ = CRIMINALZ!".
This kinda thing needs to be introduced over one or two generations, when most people know the good side of the internet, and what goes and what does not.

Yet more attempts to control the internet
Why does that keep happening  >:( :(

Don't you know, if you control the Internet you control the world.  Well either that or you can stop all the evil pirates stealing yar stuff.

Er, what is the proposal now? couldn't find it from a quick look at one of the articles.

To hand responsiblity and authority for regulating the internet to the ITU.
The ITU is a UN agency that was created to regulate the telegraph and gives each nation's government one vote each on each policy and has zero transparancy.
If accepted as the regulatory body of the internet policies effecting the internet would be decided, voted on behind closed doors and only announced once moves were made to enforce them.
Russia, China, Pakistan and a number of other internet freedom loving countries are pushing hard for the ITU to be given this authority.
And here's a piece written on wired by the head of the ITU on the subject

Quote
Governments are looking for more effective frameworks to combat fraud and other crimes. Some commentators have suggested such frameworks could also legitimize censorship. However, Member States already have the right, as stated in Article 34 of the Constitution of ITU, to block any private telecommunications that appear “dangerous to the security of the State or contrary to its laws, to public order or to decency.” The treaty regulations cannot override the Constitution.
It makes for intresting reading.

You know, I've got a pretty simple policy when it comes to this kind of monitoring stuff, if they're watching us, we should be watching them.

Rules that are proposed to regulate the Internet are almost always stupid in that they assume that the Internet is built on certain fundamental underlying structures which are actually only optional.

I find it amusing that it is says "As stated in article 34", and that that article is related to censorship.
That's a very amusing coincidence.

I'm talking to like, 5 different people in different chats, thinking about how I'm not quite so lonely anymore. Then I look around, and realize most of them are spread across the world.

For, in order that men should resist injustice, something more is necessary than that they should think injustice unpleasant. They must think injustice absurd; above all, they must think it startling. They must retain the violence of a virgin astonishment. When the pessimist looks at any infamy, it is to him, after all, only a repetition of the infamy of existence. But the optimist sees injustice as something discordant and unexpected, and it stings him into action.
