Outrageous!!

so much for my happy day...my daily routine is definitely going to be messed up with high doses of anger and outrage. the same happened with the Mumbai train blasts earlier this month. and now again today reading this report has revoked my ire.

Indian Government censorship on blogs
what is this???...
I DEMAND AN EXPLAINATION!!
freedom of speech is one of my Constitutional Rights and it cannot be taken away so easily for any reason whatsoever...i don't want to go into a lengthy discussion right now cause it shall only make me more outraged at the entire issue. just remember draconian government and Caesarean plutocrats, i also have the right to ensure that my Constitutional Rights are protected at all costs. this right allows Indian citizens (i.e. me) to stand up for their rights against anybody, even the Government of India.

maybe i am better off on this island. at least no one here is censoring my rights...now i gotta go make myself some breakfast. all this ranting so early in the morning makes me hungry!!

ps: thank you wishnew for the link to the article.

Freakish...anyway people seem to be doing things and I read somewhere that this maybe only a 48 hour ban. Lets see how this goes.

ps go do the poll where they ask if it's ok for blogs to be banned, it's on one of the sidebars

Hey bru,

WHAT????? People from India has Constitutional Wrights? Since when? Back in the old days you know...remember way there is so much Indian people in Mauritius? Hey just kidding bru.....

I guess it is to stop the SPAMMING thing. You know the Indians are probably the best qualified business people & are truly internet geniuses...So put that together and see what you get.

VA VA VOOM.....SPAMMING....Anyways bru, I hope you are having fun and by the way, when are YOU LEAVING THE ISLAND? Date confirmed yet?

Ciao for now

Oh yeah...Those lame ducks blocked it but a bypass has already been founnd...Its funny to me as this is how smart they r, regular people could find an alternative...Then I think of security and see how hopeless they are to protect us! I have been pasting the bypass method on many Indian blogers post today so tht they find their way back!

I am still seething that the ban was even considered.
Beks, where is the poll you were talking about?

Beks: i voted...

Bru: its not about the commercial spamming. its a reciprocal measure initiated in the aftermath of the Mumbai train blasts. apparently according to the Govt terrorists use blogs to communicate. so they shut down all blogs...something in the tune of "Andher Nagri Chaupat Raja".

Scribblez: the Indian gentry is definitely more innovative and smarter than the senile old morons up in the Parliament House and their red-tape bound bureaucrats. if its any consolation, the President did make the Agni missiles for our protection!!

now if only somebody ordered a custom built backbone for our nation's leaders??

Me: the poll is in the left side bar towards the bottom of the page. kindda easy to miss. but still there.
