Internet shut down for "protection" against terror

Please, I am looking for simple like communism is wealth is distributed according to need. A trashperson with eight children will receive more than a physician with no children will recieve more.

Keep it simple as I am far from a whiz in the sciences.

Gobbo,

You’d also think that governments being democratically elected by a minority would meet with a lot of resistance, but Blair and Bush stand where they stand. You’d also think that an economic system where more are starving than are in luxury despite living in a world of plenty would meet with a lot of resistance but the World Bank and the IMF remain. You’d also think that fighting large scale wars when seeking a small scale, specialised enemy was a waste of time (and lives, of course) and would meet with a lot of resistance but… well, there were mass protests. That’s it. I went to protest and I tried to convince people that we should storm the House of Commons and actually try to make a difference to the policy by demanding, in person, to see the evidence (which we have now seen, of course). No-one was interested…

Apathy goes a long way. Most people who use the internet are, I reckon, idiotic and apathetic. Just look at the button that doesn’t do anything…

Yeah but people don’t like it when you impose on their personal freedoms. Heh… at least when you do it in a direct way. You’re right… most people probably don’t give a shit about what goes on in the world… but when you take away their ability to jack off to free porn in the alone in the dark of their apartment… they get pissed.

Perhaps. Possibly we’d just see another cultural shift in sexual practices. More prostitution, private booths down alleyways with blue movies playing on a small, filthy screen. You don’t need porn to jack off, though these days people’s imaginations are stunted due to quick-fix entertainment so it is harder for them to conjure up the appropriate sensations…

We’ll see. We’re both young enough to, in all likelihood, see the true ‘end’ of the 20th century. We’ve had generations X and Y, there wasn’t much difference between them. We’ll probably go through the whole fucking alphabet before the revolution. Actually, no we won’t. I’m being facetious.

I think Big money is who is running things and the target.

It is funny how big money has allowed the sharing of information we so enjoy this long. But what happens when this sharing becomes more widespread and threatens big money who wants to sell this information?

That is when the shit is going to hit the fan I think. Granted my knowledge of the internet is limited at best. I know the basic idea is the sharing of knowledge, or the spreading of propaganda. Both use this meduim to communicate.

What would have happened in the Spanish Inquisision if the whole world was connected by the internet? Would it have been contained and stopped by torture and fear?

But as some of you have mentioned…it would probably be self defeating for them to do away with this propaganda tool. Could they come up with a way to outlaw the sharing, making us sell what we know like they do?

Example Would Bush share or sell what is under his hood to make him capable to be superior to us? What if Cheney starts sharing his for free?
Is he “enlightening” us, or inciting us to rebel and make HIM our leader?

How can we tell? What would Bush do? Would he actually threaten and hunt down all the people Cheney had talked to? Or would he hunt down ol Dick himself and silence him?

think about that for a minute.

What about simply coming up with their own search engines so they can limit people to the information they want them to have access to. That would be a good tactic that wouldn’t ruffle many feathers…who would know?
