EVE General Discussion

CCP may need to think about moving their HQ

Iceland could become the first Western democracy to attempt censorship of the internet under radical proposals to block online pornography.

The government is considering introducing internet filters, such as those used to block China off form the worldwide web, in order to stop Icelanders downloading or viewing pornography on the internet.

Ogmundur Jonasson, Iceland's interior minister, is drafting legislation to stop the access of online pornographic images and videos by young people through computers, games consoles and smartphones.
"We have to be able to discuss a ban on violent pornography, which we all agree has a very harmful effects on young people and can have a clear link to incidences of violent crime," he said.
Methods under consideration include blocking access to pornographic website addresses and making it illegal to use Icelandic credit cards to access pay-per-view pornography.

Looks like this is the time that EVE dies. They will need to delete the game to free up the server space for more important things.

Governments have been tricking us into obedience for as long as I live, I sincerely don't know any better then that the rules are determined by the stupid, and circumvented by the intelligent.

Ban on porn?


Disgusting. I am sure there is something in the most superior constitution about my right to look at porn.

Spurty stuff. Indeed.
