If they don't want to know what goes on in the rest of the world they don't have to go online, but if their government is oppressive then we (the rest of the world) should not make the act of opression any easier for outdated governments.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00395794567850045345noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5632053686694773010.post-6725610625752938982012-12-05T07:16:44.989-08:002012-12-05T07:16:44.989-08:00While I do agree they should include more detail t...While I do agree they should include more detail to this and such, after doing some research what I have found is that the arn't necessarilly protesting the convention, but rather the more oppressive policies. I sign it on the grounds that the people should have a say in something which is used by the people, and often neglected in manefestos, which give them the right to implement policies, so they cannot run their country how they see fit unless people agreed to it in manefesto.<br /><br />And yes, people do forget that the government is run by people as well, but you also forget that the government, especially the U.S. government with how laws are passed and implemented, have massive investment into large companies, which in turn can influence policies.<br /><br />Ad while you recognised the Declaration of independance was a bad example, it was signed by the oppressed against the oppressor, this is potentially the oppressor signing against the oppressed, and for the sake of democracy the oppressed have a right to know and a right to access the process of decision making so they have the choice.<br /><br />Really it is more to show that if the UN does anything which can harm the liberties of the internet, or does it in the gains of large businesses without gains for the people, there will be consequences, and such a sensitive and vital issue. You say you would rather a two sided arguement, and so would I, but this isnt a SOPA issue where there is a clear antagonist, and not everyone will be politically interested enough to sign something which probably will be ok.<br /><br />Just my two cents.Grimfang999https://www.blogger.com/profile/15434881366949422546noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5632053686694773010.post-42160169237473917962012-12-04T14:52:48.058-08:002012-12-04T14:52:48.058-08:00Thank goodness I never signed it in the first plac...Thank goodness I never signed it in the first place. :)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5632053686694773010.post-7869827185856968922012-12-04T10:05:14.950-08:002012-12-04T10:05:14.950-08:00Brilliant repudiation of Google's content-free...Brilliant repudiation of Google's content-free propaganda campaign. It struck me as odd when I failed to find any meaningful information on their "take-action" page. Further investigation revealed that Google's intentions might not be as benign as it would have you believe.deepakhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02642385095539573529noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5632053686694773010.post-58857006000577676862012-12-03T05:09:38.952-08:002012-12-03T05:09:38.952-08:00Good article.
