That evil interweb

Filed under: Interweb,Politics — and written by Bertie @ 3:51 pm

Yup, once again, we have murder committed by the interweb. Uhhr, no, hang on a moment. Surely a man murdered a woman here? Something that is, of course, sadly all too common. But, no, apparently, the interweb was to blame. Must be all those tubes.

Be interesting how they try and enforce this one–

“acts that appear to be life threatening or are likely to result in serious, disabling injury

Remove that ‘disabling’ and most piercing sites would come under scrutiny. Actually, bme would anyway.

That ‘appear’ leaves open the application of the law (as currently with kiddie porn legislation) to completely fake images. Ie. you make an animation of someone murdering someone, its just as criminal as if you film someone murdering someone.

Oh, and ‘likely to result in…’ Hmm, the jackass boys better not be filming round here.

File under ‘completely unenforceable pandering to the tabloids.”
