Yeah, I've been guilty of illegal downloads...and still do occasionaly(I'm poor what can I tell you). I'm not keen however on The American govt smuggling in stifling and censorious legislation under the guise of protecting copyright. I'm sure the stuffed shirts in The Pentagon are petrified at what they've witnessed during the Arab Spring etc and you can guarantee that whats happening in the States means that our drone like leadership wont be far behind in curbing freedom of speech on the internet. Pass it on innit...

I repeat from another thread


"As for wikipedia, it's not down so much as very clumsily hidden, a bit of manipulation with chrome or ie dev tools (ctrl+shift+i or F12 respectively) or firebug in firefox and you can see it in all its glory. "


find the content Div and update display:none to something like display:block


it's baaack.


Or use a mobile browser/app as otta suggests.

oh, and of the OP point, I'm pretty sure it's more to do with cronyism and business interests (think Murdoch and pals) than suppressing real democracy maaaan.


The stuffed shirts in the pentagon have nothing to fear from their people and it looks like whoever wins the next election will be taking a few of their toys away from them.


Our gov't even less so, if they can ride out the expenses scandal and get a country to vote against change that will hand (a teeeeny teeeny teeeny bit of) power back to them, they can ride out anything.


The occupy movement has consistently used the terminology of the arab spring to attempt to rouse the various target publics and have been met with general derision.

SOPA or 3261 - H.R. 3261ip bill

This is a censorship bill, the internet kill switch governments have been asking for, for a long time.

Goodbye free speech.


NDAA or H.R. 1540

Goodbye Posse Comitatus Act of 1878.


The Enemy Expatriation Act (S.1698/H.R.3166)

Goodbye U.S. citizens.


See a pattern yet ??

    • Remember, you never know what someone else is going through behind closed doors....
    • Is anyone else having difficulty booking Silver Swim sessions (Tuesday and Thursday between 3pm-4pm?) Almost all the spaces are taken before the online booking system opens at 10pm several days before. Last night there appeared to be one space available for next Tuesday. I tried to book at one second past 10pm but was unsuccessful. This seems to have been a recent phenomenon. I made a telephone call this morning but just received a recorded message saying that the voicemail box was full. Am I right in assuming that in person bookings are now taking precedence over online ones?
    • I completely agree with you, Angelina. But it's worth noting that no one else has a problem with her, or finds her rude /  has mentioned her aggressively banging gates / ringing doorbells etc. 
    • But I don't think that was what you meant, was it? But he can hardly be held responsible for what somebody else did! Just discovered I forgot to post the above  last night, and now it's overtaken by long posts.  I don't have sufficient knowledge  to counter some of what has been said above, some of which appears to be opinion rather than facts, so it would be pointless for me to say anything else.
