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 ??

    • Depends on what the Barista says doesnt it? There was no physical confrontation with the driver, OP thinks she is being targetted when she isnt. These guys work min wage under strict schedules so give them a break unless they damage your stuff
    • CPR Dave, attendance records are available on Southwark's website. Maggie Browning has attended 100% of meetings. Jon Hartley has attended 65%.
    • I do hope NOT, wouldn't trust Farage as far as I could throw him, Starmer & co.  He's backed by GB News which focus's predominantly on immigration while the BBC focus predominantly on the Israel - Gazza conflict.   
    • Everyone gets the point that Corbynites try to make with the "total number of votes cast" statistic, it's just a specious one.  In 2017, Corbyn's Labour got fewer votes than May's Tories (both the percentage of votes and aggregate number of votes). In 2019, Corbyn's Labour fewer votes than Johnson's Tories (both the percentage of votes and aggregate number of votes); and he managed to drop 2.7 million votes or 6.9% of vote share between the two elections. I repeat, he got trounced by Boris F***ing Johnson and the Tories after the Brexit omnishambles. It is not true that a "fairer" electoral system would have seen Labour beat the Tories: Labour simply got fewer votes than the Tories. Corbyn lost twice. There is no metric by which he won the general election. His failure to win was a disaster for the UK, and let Johnson and Truss and Sunak into office. Corbynites have to let go of this delusion that Corbyn but really won somehow if you squint in a certain way. It is completely irrelevant that Labour under Corbyn got more votes than Labour under Starmer. It is like saying Hull City was more successful in its 2014 FA Cup Final than Chelsea was in its 2018 FA Cup Final, because Hull scored 2 goals when Chelsea only scored 1. But guess what - Chelsea won its game and Hull City lost. Corbyn's fans turned out to vote for him - but an even larger group of people who found him repellant were motivated enough to show up and vote Tory.
