Using Government run internet. Yeah, no thanks

gdemos012470d ago

Your Government already spies on you. So what is the difference ? :-p

ajax172470d ago

I don't want to make it any easier for them though, lol

KingPin2470d ago

at least the government is spending millions for the people.....whether the people choose to use it or not is a different story.
African governments should be taking notes.
last i checked, some of them dont give a damn about bettering the life of the people.

Government does't run anything well. I'd love to read the terms of use/agreement for using the Government run wifi. Ask the citizens of China how using Government run internet works out for you......nevermind the conversation would be censored.

You're right about the last part tho.

African leaders usually care about whatever it is their controlling corporate leaders tell them to care about. The African leaders who would actually take care of the people usually end up assassinated by people working for corporate interest from foreign lands. If an African leader started talking about nationalized resources and elevating the living standards he or she usually dies pretty quickly if the propaganda programs against them don't work. Don't let western press fool you. We seem to have sway in every decision they make but for some odd reason that influence never seems to move them towards autonomy.

@Ex

The NSA seems to do very well in their work. The military blows up every country it wants to. The CIA influences every government and even after the truth becomes known about all the election fraud and coups they have pulled Americans have the nerve to get upset that Russia might have helped Trump. Government works where it wants to work. It's true purpose has become propping up corporations and wealthy people. The NSA intercepts electronics in transit and implants surveillance systems. The government is capable of doing things if those things are for the people they care about. The general public aren't those people. America and Africa have the exact same problem.

The EU isn't doing anything to help its members, in fact right now it's suing Poland for not flooding its borders with migrants who strain the social wellfare systems. Offering some Wi-Fi isn't going to cover that up. That doesn't even consider the fact that the EU believes in censorship and arrest of political dissidents.

freshslicepizza2469d ago

Oh no, now they will spy on you YouTube cat videos!

annoyedgamer2470d ago

*Censored internet
*Flagged users will be arrested
*Flagged countries will have to pay

If the EU takes over your country, this is your future.

Its in Swedish but it roughly translates to libraries destroying and in come cases, burning books that may be "perceived" as racist. Remind me again who burned books in Europe?

Kabaneri2470d ago

Hilarious how Germany censors the right wing out of fear of Hitler only to flood the EU with Nazism: The religion. Destroying Europe is a German tradition it seems. Well, at least Poland and Hungary still have hope.

@kalkano The NSDAP was a nationalist center-right party. Don't get confused by the 'socialist' line of their ideology. Biggest misconception these days is that socialism can only be associated with the left side of the political spectrum when it's been in practice on the right side as well. In the case of Germany it was people first and state second as opposed to the Soviet Union which was state first and people second. It's why citizens in Germany could own private property and firearms while in the Soviet Union their citizens couldn't.
