Point 1: feel lucky to not be 'murican
Point 2: IMO, one of the tasks of Justice is to protect the innocent, even if they are stupid, and/or specially when they are stupid. I wonder how putting that boy in a prison full of convicted criminals is going to improve anything for him or the society.
Point 3: the woman who denounced him really needs to get some common sense and stop spreading her stupid around. CCP Unifex: -á"lurking single players (...)-áare the majority of characters on Tranquility"
...And so now we know why CCP hasn't done anything for soloers since Apochrypha. |

As much as the trend scares me, it's not a US thing. The UK in particular has really started to crack down on things they consider hate speech.
Side note: Looking up IPs is far from illegal or hacking (there are in fact public registrars like http://whois.net/ ). It's far more likely that he was found via social networking or some online persona, which again, is pretty mundane. |

Ahaha, I didn't even notice that, but then I don't tend to read peoples sigs just what they have typed as a comment but then as everything seems to be heading down that way Orwell seems appropriate,

No, but is aware of them.
I'm not the one advocating for open IP and stuff like that, but am aware of human nature and it's potential.
If folks don't self-police, you will get your 1984. Because society itself will demand it. And humans are herd animals. Post 9/11 "protection" efforts is an example of it in progress now. "In a world of universal deceit, telling the truth is a revolutionary act." ~George Orwell

Sounds like a tough sentence, even though I've not even read the case.
But sounds like they just want to use him to set an example and warn others. Hence a steep sentence. |

No other country jails more.
But all is still possible because not enough self-policing. If society has to enforce morality/ethics (and not the individual) they'll use the biggest clubs available, and as indiscriminately too.
Not 1984 style, Clockwork Orange style.
Self-policing keeps it under the radar. If you let the powers-that-be shine their laser on it because they now know about it, the interest can even be incinerated as the powers-that-be will do anything to remain in power.

Yeah good point with the Clockwork orange though It does seem that you associate both books with most countries now-a-days.
But 8 years in jail is too steep even to make him a point for gamers who use sarcasm to reply to others in my eyes anyway

Ah you see, I am English, and I drink a hell of a lot of (some say too much) tea... So... You know lol
But this is side tracking. This tea part was meant comically and sarcastically. Showing all too well how sarcasm doesn't work on the internet.
It's human nature to want to explore. To find your line and go beyond it. The only limit, is the one you set yourself. |

That happens because of human nature. People want action now, they don't think of the broader consequences that can happen later.
Just like the post 9/11 "protections".
It's very very very difficult to get a law off the books once it's there. This is why folks have to nip such legislation fast and before it does get on the books. Otherwise, it does take a revolution to change it.
What is happening now is a quick fix for a problem that's harder to fix, as it relates to self-policing. And self-policing is the biggest club the "little guy" has against Big Brother. "In a world of universal deceit, telling the truth is a revolutionary act." ~George Orwell

Mainly that you rage because some youtuber tells you to and not because you bothered to look into it.
That makes you just as much of a sheep as the angry soccer moms if you ask me; it's important to be indignant for the right reasons.

This is all very typical of the totalitarian governments people think they have chosen themselves. It's a sad state of affairs, but it is how it is. I'm sure a few more decades of indentured service in our bureau-democratic systems will stamp out the last sparks of surprise at these events, should you feel distressed by them. Really, just take your soma and take a vacation, you will feel better. |
