The Ukrainian parliament passed the first reading of a bill banning publication -- including on the Internet -- of anything that promotes terrorism, the overthrow of the state or damages an individual's reputation.

That has nothing to do with communism.

nevermind about the communism. The part I was talking about is not terrorism but the part that says it will be illegal to post information on the internet that damages a person's reputation.

communism is the blood enemy of the "free world" (read, america), and terrorists hate america, so, terrorism=communism. Even better, you dont like the country, you're a communist, and thus, a terrorist. I love my country  :rolleyes:

Did anyone notice that this was in the Ukraine?

I highly doubt that the legal systems of any other country will even take the time to consider the multitude of extradition requests that Ukranian "authorities" will be spewing out for every dumbass who posts "bill gates sucks donkey balls" or something similar....

Pay it no heed. Unless you live in the Ukraine, which shall be known from here forward as "Thought Police State Alpha", in which case RUN LIKE HELL.

I'm sure the people in that region are used to having their freedoms taken away. And it's not like that many linux nerds come from the Ukraine.

Better them than us. I'm saying it just won't bother them as much as it would bother other countries.
