Okay, here is one of the most shocking news I've ever heard. Malaysia Communications and Multimedia Comission (SKMM) submits request to country's ISP ordering them to block ten file-sharing sites including Megaupload, Filesreve, and Pirate Bay.
SKMM stated the action is taken based on copyright issues but file-sharing sites are also used by others to share important files and documents. And I'm seriously pissed off because I downloaded all my Korean dramas from Megaupload. Yeah, I know it is about copyright issue but why the hell they are doing this when our Prime Minister Datuk Seri Najib Razak vowed (in April 2011 at the 1st Malaysian-ASEAN Regional Bloggers Conference) that his administration would never censor the Internet.
Unfortunately, SKMM made it clear that there is a difference between censorship and upholding the rule of law.
What’s the point of subscribing high-speed Internet but start controlling what we are doing online? Why must block file-sharing sites but not PORN sites instead?? why?? oh seriously tell me why.
I have a friend in US having no problem downloading from all file-sharing sites. And she have a Premium Megaupload account too.
Seriously I hate this situation. Congratulations, you just kill my mood today, tomorrow, and day after tomorrow...and the day after tomorrow..bla..bla...bla..
