Editor's note:If the globalist controlling 'elite' bloodlines have nothing to hide, why are they censoring the internet worldwide?!
Paul Joseph Watson
infowars.com With influential proponents recently calling for a
newly regulated world wide web, we got a preview of how that might look
this past weekend after both Infowars.com and Prison Planet.com were
completely blocked to many Internet users in New Zealand.
The block was only removed early this morning following
a raft of complaints after both websites were unavailable on many ISP’s
since Friday.
As the New Zealand based InfoNews website reported
yesterday, both of Alex Jones’ flagship websites were blocked by ISPs
using Asia Netcom for their international internet traffic.
It is important to stress that we receive emails on a
weekly basis informing us that our websites have been blocked as “hate
speech” or “offensive material” at Internet cafes, libraries, transport
hubs, workplaces, and numerous other buildings not only in the United
States but across the world. The censorship is being done at the ISP
level, so whereas some people in a particular country will still have
access, others will be blocked.
As we reported in 2008, London’s St. Pancras International,
which millions of people traveling across mainland Europe pass through
every year, completely blocks Prison Planet, Infowars and even more
mainstream political websites as a matter of course.
In 2007, MySpace admitted
their policy to censor and filter out posts containing links to the
Prison Planet.com website, adding that the MySpace server automatically
blocks such information. The social networking giant, as well as others
such as Facebook, periodically block links to Alex Jones material and
only revoke such filters when people complain.
In 2005, Time Warner subscribers
from New York to California reported that their access to Infowars and
Prison Planet had been blocked due to “hate speech,” before their
access was restored.
UK ISP Tiscali also blocked the websites following the 7/7 London bombings in 2005.
Infowars’ social network was also blocked by libraries in the U.S. in 2008 using Safesquid and Google filtering software.
We receive numerous reports every single week of Alex
Jones’ websites being blocked by ISPs and by filtering software in
public buildings.
“An avid fan of Infowars.com and a 9/11 truth activist,
Jeff Mitchell, reported on Saturday that he contacted his ISP, Orcon,
to establish what was causing the block, and was advised by a computer
technician who did a trace route, that the break in traffic to the two
websites was found to be occurring at Asia Netcom’s router in Sydney,”
stated the report.
The websites were blocked on every ISP that relied on
Asia Netcom as its upstream provider, including Woosh, Telecom,
Slingshot and Orcon.
According to Duncan Blair, Head of Brand and
Communications at Orcon, access to content hosted on the Limelight
content distribution network, including Infowars.com and Prison
Planet.com, was blocked as a result of a “technical issue”. “I’m the person who half-made this story possible by
calling my ISP,” wrote Jeff Mitchell in a comment on Prison Planet.
“Just want to report that infowars.com is now working for me, even
though it was down all weekend! We complained to ISPs and they were
“very concerned” about censorship; that, combined with this article on
prisonplanet could very well have been the reason for us regaining
access.”
Whether the problem was down to technical issues or
deliberate censorship, the fact that ISP’s can selectively block
certain websites at the flick of a switch gives us a frightening
preview of what a Chinese-style government regulated Internet would
look like, which is exactly what influential insiders are calling for.
The move to impose centralized government control and regulation of the free Internet has accelerated over the past 12 months.
Last week, Time Magazine enthusiastically jumped on the bandwagon
to back Microsoft executive Craig Mundie’s call for Internet licensing,
as authorities push for a system even more stifling than in Communist
China, where only people with government permission would be allowed to
express free speech.
During a recent conference at the Davos Economic Forum,
Mundie, chief research and strategy officer for Microsoft, told fellow
globalists at the summit that the Internet needed to be policed by
means of introducing licenses similar to drivers licenses – in other
words government permission to use the web.
Internet censorship bills currently working their way into law
in the UK, Australia and the U.S. legislate for government powers to
restrict and filter any website that it deems to be undesirable for
public consumption. In Italy, new rules to be imposed by government decree force anyone who wishes to upload a video to the web to get permission from the government’s Communications Ministry.
Power brokers in the White House have openly declared
war on free speech and targeted Internet “conspiracy theorists” as the
main threat to their agenda.
In a 2008 white paper, Obama’s Regulation Czar Cass Sunstein called for the government to tax or even ban outright political opinions of which it disapproved.
On page 14 of Sunstein’s January 2008 white paper entitled “Conspiracy Theories,”
the man who is now Obama’s head of information technology in the White
House proposed that each of the following measures “will have a place
under imaginable conditions” according to the strategy detailed in the
essay.
1) Government might ban conspiracy theorizing.
2) Government might impose some kind of tax, financial or otherwise, on those who disseminate such theories.
The ominous spectacle of major free speech websites going dark in
supposedly democratic countries is a shocking portend of what the
establishment wants to impose on a widespread basis. Only by screaming
bloody murder in defense of the last true outpost of free speech – the
Internet – and threatening boycotts and aggressive public relations
campaigns can we counter the insidious move to silence the only
remaining open forum of lawful dissent.
