Europe moves to kill the Internet.
 
Quote:

The latest move to kill off online freedom and the spread of information comes in the form of proposed EU legislation that would prevent users from uploading any form of video, whether that be a hard hitting political documentary film or your friends goofing around with diet coke and Mentos.

A proposed EU directive could extend broadcasting regulations to the internet, hitting popular video-sharing websites such as YouTube., reports the London Times. This would mean that websites and mobile phone services that feature video images would have to conform to standards laid down in Brussels.

Europe is very socialist leaning this doesnt surprise me at all.

CheneyRumsfeld 10-17-2006 06:22 PM

they did not invent it.
don't control it.
know nothing about it.
why don't they just stick to what they know and surrender to someone.

It was also the EU who had reams of paper covering catering and where it would prob cost $180 ish to prepare a sandwich. There's no end to imbeciles when they are let loose on the public.

Ministers fear that the directive would hit not only successful sites such as YouTube but also amateur ?video bloggers? who post material on their own sites. Personal websites would have to be licensed as a ?television-like service?.
Absurd

Quote:

British criminal law already covers material that might incite hate or cause harm to children, Mr Woodward added. The Government?s definition of online broadcasting covers feature films, sports events, situation comedy, documentary, children?s programmes and original drama. It excludes personal websites and sites where people upload and exchange video images.

?The real risk is we drive out the next MySpace because of the cost of complying with unnecessary regulations,? Mr Woodward said. ?These businesses can easily operate outside the EU.?
Smells like someone wants to control "broadcasting" - in all it's forms. But least they get the point that nobody cares what their laws are if they don't operate under them - simply locate to a more favorable country.

Doubt this bullshit will get far.

wyldblyss 10-17-2006 06:29 PM

do they take these poeple when they are babies and quaranteen them so they know nothing about real life before entering office or what?

Oh no :winkwink: - Once a nation or group of nations consider they have power, the first thing they do is abuse it. That element never fails and the EU is no different.

Dirty Dane 10-17-2006 06:33 PM

When do people learn that EU is not same as Europe? :2 cents:

Spunky 10-17-2006 06:37 PM

Totally correct! :thumbsup There is a vast difference between the nations in Europe and an asylum of bureaucrats in Brussels who shuffle paper 24/7 and hardly read the content - despite it may be yet another "directive" which is supposed to end up as law.

AtlantisCash 10-17-2006 06:54 PM

i think, Europ gos back to the middle age darkness with their actions at this days, they shouldn't consider them selfs as some fucking democracy warriors anymore.

the similar thing one olso wants to try at Turkiye at this days, Police wanted that all INTERNET users's details to folow any actions on internet that after hacking events increased.

Damn where the fucking world gos?

i guess that older uncles can not update them selfs for new age technology & they do show how they all damn ignorant humanity motherfuckers.

well. do you guys ghink that propose could be put in to practice?

AtlantisCash 10-17-2006 07:12 PM

Bumpity bump bump :)

scottybuzz 10-17-2006 07:12 PM

To be honest, the rival MP who wants to be the new Prime Minster made his own video webblogs. The whole idea is completely retarded.

MaddCaz 10-17-2006 07:13 PM

damn too bad b....

AtlantisCash 10-17-2006 08:13 PM

is that just for video blogs or does porn sites count too?

i mean - anythink wrong with our business & how will they check any sites out? here is the internet, if they found something wrong what they don't want, they can just block it as what Iran does.

if so, maybe can Bush think to attack them to?
:) :O
