It is not because we have no government that we have no internet censorship: http://www.rtbf.be/info/medias/detail_d ... pirate-bay

Internet service providers Telenet and Belgacom must block access to The Pirate Bay via their servers following a decision by the Antwerp Court of Appeal. In particular, video and music files are shared on The Pirate Bay.

The judgment on appeal contradicts a previous decision of 8 July from the Commercial Court of Mechelen. The latter had considered that the blocking request of the anti-piracy federation BAF was disproportionate.

The court gives Telenet and Belgacom 14 days to set up the blocking, so that their customers will no longer be able to surf on the site concerned, via the DNS servers of their supplier.

The BAF welcomed, in a press release, the decision which "obliges Belgacom and Telenet to block access to a site with illegal content in order to protect the rights of authors, artists, producers ... and therefore the creativity online ". The federation also calls on other providers to block access to The Pirate Bay.

Citizen rights organization Nurpa speaks of a "dangerous precedent". The decision is not in line with the doctrine of proportionality defended by the European Court of Human Rights, believes the association.

The operators have confirmed to the ZDNet.be site that they will comply with the court decision. However, Telenet's legal department is still studying the possibility of continuing the legal proceedings.

Hadopi et cie is bullshit ... This Belgian solution, certainly more radical, is also more effective ... it is the one that I "recommended" from the beginning against piracy ... read above or subject hadopi. ..on the other hand it is the door open to any censorship ...

Right, what is piracy?

Advise to drive in vegetable oil that can be considered as piracy on the part of the State ... since it is "pirated" its "taxes" ...

This is why this censorship of the net can make a dangerous precedent ... :| :|

Another example: Econology has already been blocked by several network administrators in large boxes because it "hacked" the working time of some regulars ... : Cheesy:

Christophe

As before it was me, the boss, I didn't have too much concern!

3 months ago I had an opportunity for a well-paid job that I accepted without regret without the worry of all the paperwork of the self-employed from where I have access to the net but which leaves traces therefore not question of frequenting the site during working hours, this is also the reason why I post now only very rarely! : Cry:

Well as long as you don't spend your working days there forum, I'll be fine I think!

If it's just to leave 1 or 2 messages per day, there is no reason why it should be blocked (the admin only sees page load requests and traffic ... not the exact time spent, if a page is loaded it can be loaded for 3 hours without any network communication)

Facebook, on the other hand, is in my opinion blocked in many boxes (and this is quite normal ... seen as it is time consuming). There is surely a study which had to estimate the loss of productivity / GDP "thanks" to FB

All is not lost because I could always posted in the morning so in the evening for you, this work is evening from 15:00 p.m. to midnight but since there was so much work I had to do extra work to put the reliable and up-to-date equipment to avoid production break-downs in addition to making some improvements to make them more efficient.


The majority of the task is now accomplished and now preventive maintenance absent before my visit will require less time and I could benefit from more time to post on my favorite site! :D

Stallman's opinion:

http://tempsreel.nouvelobs.com/high-tec ... rance.html

Richard Stallman: "Internet censorship has exploded in France"

The father of free software, Richard Stallman, was the guest of Eva Joly, a green candidate, who wishes to "be inspired by his revolutionary ideas" for his program. At 58, this long-haired "guru" has lost none of his commitment to digital rights. If he vigorously denounces Apple's "cool prisons", Richard Stallman also attacks the repressive policies of Nicolas Sarkozy. Interview.

What is the purpose of this meeting with Eva Joly?

- I am looking above all for political support for free software and for the freedom to share.

Are you calling on the French to vote for it in 2012?

- I have not decide yet. I gave them my advice, but they still have to decide. For now, they are going in the right direction, but I will see that it will be their final posture.

And what do you think of the socialist project?

- I have not seen it again. I was told about the recent changes in posture of [François] Hollande. He talked for a while about eliminating Hadopi, before retracting. I think he does not really want to fight against the unjust laws of [Nicolas] Sarkozy. But, it amazes me that a candidate who calls himself a socialist obeys big companies so much.

Richard Stallman, father of free software, in the campaign headquarters of Europe-Ecology-The Greens (Boris Manenti - Le Nouvel Observateur) What is your position on the authority against illegal downloading, Hadopi?

- Hadopi is unfair. The purpose of the Hadopi is unfair because it tries to eliminate sharing. Sharing is good. To attack sharing is to attack society. We must legalize the sharing of works. Hadopi's means are also unjust, because it is a punishment without a real trial. Under pressure from companies, the French State has broken the principles of justice to ensure the empire of these companies over my citizens.

Finally, Hadopi understands another injustice: collective responsibility. If you have a wireless network and you don't secure it, that is, you don't act to restrict and subdue others, you can be punished. Hadopi bears the mark of tyrants. With it, you have a duty to impose control on others, because if you don't do it and they do prohibited things, you will be punished.

The solution to downloading would be global patronage?

- This is just one of the solutions I propose. Global patronage aims to remunerate artists (authors, composers and performers), without going against internet users. The idea is that each internet user will have to pay a monthly fee and will have the right to allocate the fraction they want of this fee - within a limit of one third - to the works of their choice. The rest will be paid to artists based on the cube root of each artist's popularity. All sent by copyright management companies. This system supports artists according to the popularity of each, but not in linear proportion. With the cubic root, second-tier artists will have broad support, and stars will always be wealthy. An artist 1.000 times more popular will be paid 10 times more.

Compared to the 80s, how do you see the evolution of IT and the web?

- The question is too broad ... I need a more specific portion.

Have you seen an evolution in the past five years?

- I haven't seen many changes in the past five years. I especially observe a growth of the sites which aim to be addictive and which set up a broad monitoring, like for example Facebook. Facebook is not your friend. I will never use it. In addition, web censorship has exploded in many countries, including France. In France, the Loppsi law has led to additional censorship [the law provides for filtering of child pornography sites compiled on a black list, editor's note], and there continues to be censorship of ideas considered to be incorrect, such as the denial of the holocaust. I do not agree with this idea, but it should not be censored. Censorship of an idea is never justified. Even Sarkozy's ideas should not be censored, although they are completely bad.

Do you also notice an evolution in the world of hackers, of which you were a part?

- There is confusion over the word "hacker". For me being a "hacker" means having fun with intelligence in a playful spirit, and not just with computers. Computers are a great way to have fun with intelligence, but not the only one. For example, my business card is a "hack". [He hands out a business card and adds, "put it in the article to show readers what a hack is."] With computers, there are many ways to have fun in a playful and clever. Writing useful programs or making jokes can be a "hack, just like breaking computer security. Breaking or providing computer security can be fun, but of course in most cases the goal is different.
Richard Stallman's business card, an example according to him of a "hack" (Screenshot)



And what do you think of Anonymous?

- Most of the time, what Anonymous does is only the equivalent of a demonstration at the door of a building, to denounce what a company has done or continues to do. It is normal that they protest. But the trend is towards the elimination of this right to demonstrate, quite simply because the states which have the democratic form in truth obey big business and do not want the people to exercise any power. So states are looking for all ways to ban protests. In the case of Anonymous, an apology was found, but I believe that the States have committed crimes ...

Since the time I say that we are more in a democracy but in a corporate state ...
Nobody believed me ...
And before the election of the dwarf, I had also bet that it would be like in China ...
Ah there, we fell very low ...
