And this how the end of a civilization or at least of an era looks like.

The neoliberal system of deregulation of the economy and finance sector, of privatization, of weak states on these topics is crashing right in front of us. It requires now non-democratic, authoritarian, decisions to keep the head outside of the water and not shrinks undersea. The destruction of the environment is a symptom of this end.

A small minority wanted unlimited in a limited world. They wanted to touch the stars and burned their fingers. Like arrogant teenagers, they said it's nothing and let find solutions that are no more than placebos. But, even this now doesn't work anymore. They have to use the authoritarian card, another placebo.

It won't change today. It's a long process which can be accelerated if the population takes the lead. They know this fact. The authoritarian card is here to keep the population quite by restricting the access to the information "for the general good". They want to control this aspect of the life too.

But the monster they created is already out of control. It makes and always made more damage than good. They accelerated the neoliberal agenda to keep it calm but it doesn't work. They are running after it and after their inevitable lost.

Oh yeah, let the government decide on censorship. I see nothing wrong with that. Oh! I know, let's have a point system based on how much they support the governments policies too!

So, what kind of sites does France want to censor? Piracy?

Posted to 'privacy' community: "Put your first and last name on this petition!"

I expect if there are too many fake names it would be used against them too. I think not signing at all is overall less detrimental my own privacy. However if there's evidence/reasoning otherwise please share!

Edit: I ended up signing with my real name, I don't see employers or anyone holding that petition against me if they find out I signed this by searching my name.

Unfortunately, this is gonna happen and worse. We lost the fight for the internet in 2006, and we're watching it die. No joke, I started using yandex browser and search since Google ruined theirs, and it is close to perfect. Waterfox is my backup.
