Internet Censorship

[Lookout]

Alex Jones' Infowars: There's a war on for your mind!

We should put up a petition on Petition.com aimed at the FCC, Time-Warner, Comcast, etc. and get everyone who visits all of Alex’s websites to go and sign it based on a united agreement to boycott all internet access companies who censor out ANY alternative news sites as well as boycott all Internet sites that also play such games like Google and Yahoo. We can inform them that millions of people will NOT shop through them or respond to any type of advertising until they stop such behavior and that we will actually quit our access companies if they insist on Internet 2. Plus we could send out a request to all of our email lists to sign the petition as well warning of what we will do if they persist. I know many people who do not agree with all of the “conspiracy” theories that others believe, but they will come out and defend free speech and demand that censorship stop immediately. I bet we could easily and quickly get over 1,000,000 signatures! Other alternative news sites would feature this approach too I believe.

Why we should pay to access an Internet that is only a glorified shopping system that offers some government services? I, for one, will be off the Internet completely at that point.

Any other ideas for fighting this censorship? We can’t expect just one or two men to do it all themselves….

Russians an' Chinese in cahoots together to censor the internet...

Russia, China cooperating on Internet censorship, report says
Nov. 29, 2016 -- Russia is looking to China for "Great Firewall" technology that can increase its control of the Internet.

The growing collaboration between Moscow and Beijing comes less than a month after Russia decided to block LinkedIn, the career-networking site. The two countries have also been stepping up joint efforts in the sectors of energy, Eurasian regional integration and military technology cooperation, Chinese state media reported. But as the Kremlin seeks more control over what Russians read and see in cyberspace, China's system of online filtering and control is gaining attention in Moscow, The Guardian reported Tuesday.

New laws in Russia give the government dominion over the Internet space, including exchange points, domain names and cross-border fiber-optic cables, the report said. A policy known as Yarovaya's law also requires Russia's telecommunications companies and Internet providers to store users' data for six months and metadata for three years. But Yarovaya's law requires the government to cope with a deluge of information about users.

Thank you Obama for giving up control of the internet​

Russia cannot look to the West for technologies to handle the workload because of sanctions, but China's system could offer an alternative solution for Russia's censors. "China remains our only serious 'ally,' including in the IT sector," a source in the Russian information technology industry told The Guardian, adding, "we are in fact actively switching to Chinese."

High-ranking officials in Moscow, military personnel and powerful businessmen, including billionaire Konstantin Malofeev, who may be behind the law, are promoting cooperation with China, according to the report. In early November China's state news service Global Times reported Chinese Premier Li Keqiang and Russian President Vladimir Putin met to strengthen economic cooperation. The two sides have agreed to work more closely together since the G20 summit in Hangzhou in October, South Korean news agency Yonhap reported.
