My friend was full with anticipation of seeing Sex and the City Movie that should be launched officially on May 30th.

I wonder whether that movie will actually be played in Indo, as the title itself is already looking for trouble

@Diny, pelopor, bonnie: Censorship is a virus especially dangerous in combination with might. It’s a crucial matter of public sanity and health for citizens to be on the alert always and fight it vigorously whenever the authorities show the slightest tendency to get infected by it.

@Marisa: Peculiar. One of those attending a meeting with National Crisis on the agenda, seem to have been focusing on a small, yellow box on the desk of one of men in the front benches.The results of this journalistic curiosity, have not yet been revealed however. Was that the box of Pandora, we wonder.

The post has been revised. Several photos from the meeting added.
Oh, and YouTube has been officially unblocked.

If you’re interested, a commentary article of the meeting is coming soon.
(A bit too late, I know.)

Unfortunately, cyberspace is for a significant part controllable.
A botnet like Kraken sends millions of SPAM e-mails a day. Google uses censorship in certain countries. And with the help of internet providers countries can block websites and content.

Uum… I thought the censorship era is over? Wouldn’t this be considered as an effort to ‘control’ the cyber world (then the electronic media, maybe)? Keep on bloggin’ guys!
