Singapore Government's move to ban porn sites is FAIL!

bro dime..how do you know bro fgl's one very long ah ??? seen before eh ?? if long also no need to tell everyone here...remember.. must be top secret
 
waraoweh - Dime ...no wonder yo kept staring at me thattime when we were in the toilet after the softies soccer match ;)
 
well...lol i believe this move to ban this, its just something symbolic la, i dun believe they will really go about it. Such as the law of 377A..Its just something symbolic from other countries to see their stand on this.
Maybe cause China is booming..so must show China, we have the same view?
 
it's not fail...it's pretty win actually. why don't you spend the time practicing your instrument instead of practicing your "instrument".
 
Is porn on the web a social problem for Singapore?
What can we do to about it?
What can the government do about it?

If we say the government fail, is there anything we can do?
 
it's not really a social problem but it's more of a moral problem. but some people find that the government doesn't have any business imposing moral values on the people. i guess even with the absence of porn, Singaporeans generally won't go out and start raping random people. the police force, laws, and punishment are much too strict and severe.

there's nothing much you can do about it but find other alternatives. banning porn sites is not like banning sites like Facebook, Youtube, etc...(they ban such sites as these in China). i doubt people will really protest to unban porn sites. it's quite lame and embarrassing.

unlike previous suggestions, educating youths will do nothing to help the situation. people grow out of porn after a certain age, although some don't. there's just no point in spending money to educate people on something that they know about but don't care much for. the government can keep doing what they do and ban porn sites but people will just find other sources and essentially nothing will happen. they're not wasting their time but it's just that they can't ban ALL sites and sources.

but maybe there are other reasons for doing so. notice how other illegal sites such as torrent trackers are not banned. have you ever wondered why?

also one way to break free from the desire to watch porn is to occupy your mind with something else. i've never thought of wanting to watch porn when i'm on the drumset, doing assignments, working, out with friends, reading, etc..it's only when i'm alone at home and i've absolutely nothing to do. it's then i'll just pick up a book and go to starbucks to read or just play the drums. works most of the time. ;).

normal people dont think about porn when they're doing something else. i dont think about porn when playing guitar, i dont think about porn when eating chicken rice at the hawker nor do i think about porn when watching tv. but when I'm bored at home? I'm not allowed to watch some porn?
 
This was found on the FAQ on the MDA website.. Is accessing pornography on the internet illegal?

"The MDA does not monitor or track users' access to any sites on the Internet and does not interfere with what individuals access in the privacy of their homes. We are primarily concerned with the purveyors and distributors of pornography. Unless you engage in such activities, the mere act of visiting such sites is not an offence."

then where else do we exercise our responsibility as an individual if everything that we do gets "spoonfed"?

nuff' said. BRING BACK SPANKWIRE!! >=(
 
duh!!! Seriously, for anyone who saw the word "proxy" since yesterday when it was mentioned in the thread, would have already google and found out how to do it....

slow folks should not watch porn to begin with...

anyway, avenue Q wanna tell everyone, click click...

Imho, the only social problem pornography creates is when it infringes upon the rights of other people. You have websites on the internet, such as Singapore's own SGGirls, where voyeuristic shots of women are taken and posted without their knowledge. Those should be the real targets for censorship and legislation.

Other than that, I really don't see the point in blocking professional websites made by consenting, paid adults. The epic fail comes from the fundamental lack of understanding of the Internet by the authorities: block one and a thousand are still accessible, proxy servers available etc.
