France approves controversial 'three strikes law'

article published on 15 September, 2009

France's lower house has today approved the extremely controversial "three-strikes" law for Internet pirates, giving authorities the power to disconnect multiple time offenders from the Internet completely. The media industry has been behind the bill in the UK, France and other nations for some time now, but strong criticism, from groups who claim the bill will threaten our civil liberties, ... [ read the full article ]

I guess the only way some people with their heads up their asses will realize that something is a bad idea is when they hit rock bottom.

This is the legacy of Bushco. George Bush helped Nick Sarcozy steal the presidential election in France as well as the election in Mexico.

Nick Sarcozy isn't even French.

I just want to know what contengency plans are in place to protect their ISPs? After all, 1000 users kicked off line every day, who is gonna take the most hit?

A) Public
B) Music Industry
C) ISP

=The public? No. The Record Companies, no they already took the hit, and chances are even if they kick people off line they still ain't gonna buy the music. How about the ISPs?

For those that picked choice 3, you are a winner; with 1000 consumers being kicked off, they are paying the gov't fines not the ISPs who will lose thousands if not hundred of thousands per year by this law. If that happens, how are they gonna keep the communication lines open? This would be the down fall of ISPs in their area and eventually the gov't is going to have to face a decision, keep the law or keep the net.

And so does Obama.

They don't care about the public, only their campaign contributions.

Standard US Presidency Procedure:
1.) Spend 3 years going against the populous and breaking every promise you made durring your campain.
2.) Spend a year going around talking about what a great job you have done for the previous 3 years when you did nothing well.
3.) Spend 4 years going against the populous and breaking every promise you made durring your campains.
4.) Retire in style off of the "Gifts" you recieved from corporations while in office, or soon after leaving office.


BTW...can't we think of something better than NWO? I mean, it is printed on our money...so it isn't exactly new, is it?

That goes without saying, as long as companies can lobby in any kind of way they will always turn men into retards or in this case statesmen into politicians.

Sarcozy is the new New World Order follower taking position in France


New World Order want power , domination , control.


When sales are bad everyone points at piracy.
When they are good , they wipe their asses with dollar bills.

They want online censorship and this will happen sooner or later.

Obama has the right to shut down online from all the country , this will happen when there will be extensive conspiracy and controversial news on the web corrupted US government don't want us citizen to see.

Hmmm...wonder how they'll apply this moronic law to internet cafe's and wifi access point providers? Even with net nannies on board, people will proxy their way through to where they want to be. Sure, it'd be slow, but possible...

Maybe this is the end of public internet access in France? v. sad indeed. Way to demonstrate exactly how to regress an entire society back to dial-up days...

First of all I rarely find the need to reply to topics. YOU need to learn what the job of a moderator is. A moderator's job is to make sure that things are run properly. It is NOT your job to throw your weight around telling people that the NWO is as you put it a "bullshit conspiracy" and basically saying that those that feel different than you about the NWO risk being banned.

As a moderator you just did the unforgivable. You threw your opinion in and said that if someone's opinion differs then you will ban them. The NWO comments are very much in line with what this story is about and is NOT going off topic. As a moderator I expect you to have opinions but using them to threaten people that oppose them is shameful.

If I get banned for this then I will lose complete respect for this site as it has been my #1 site for tech news for ages and while I do love reading all the comments I rarely feel this compelled to respond until now.

Erm you need to re-check the title under Andre's username; he's a staff member actually, he's well within his rights to comment.
It wasn't, as you put it, because others have a different opinion to him (and i suggest you re-read his reply, he didn't post that). We don't allow political discussions on this site. Period.
You'll have to like it or lump it. I have a few opinions of my own on government/politics, however i keep them to myself as this site is not a platform for such views.

Now let's get this News item back on track thanks..

He is a staff member NOT a moderator for one, and regardless you are a GUEST on their site, they can do whatever the bloody hell they want as they allow you be here on THEIR site.

Thank you Creaky, I should have pointed to the rules that specifically state no political discussions, but would have thought most members had read that by now. Half the comments were about Obama or the "NWO", neither of which is mentioned once in the article.

As the man said, back on topic now, thanks.

Sometimes guests are abused because the powers that be on the site are grade A arse holes tho I can only recall 2 sites to be that pissy out of all the ones I have drooled upon.

This site gives you more than enough rope for others to hang you with, when they need to they step in but my lord they don;t moderate nearly as much as other more pansy and frilly sites.

How exactly can a site say no political comments when the story is a politically based story? Most any response to a political based story is going to have a politically based opinionated answer. Lastly if no political comments are allowed then I would imagine a response from a staff member giving a political opinion (stating NWO conspiracy bullshit) to back your reason that you will ban someone for political statements is rather hypocritical. I understand now going forward that political comments on a politically based story are not permissible under any circumstances unless of course you are a staff member. My mistake for misunderstanding the one sided rules. It won't happen again. Sorry.
