The chairwoman of the Committee on Family, Women and Children put forward a suggestion to punish people for using dirty language in social networks. According to politician, the pages full of posts and messages containing swear words, will have to be blocked within 24 hours, if harmful information is not deleted. This should apply to pages on social networks, websites, and various forums.

 

Great, first they censor cable, now they want to censor the Internet.

Well good luck removing EVERYTHING within 24 hours there!

I don't see the point... Who really gives a fuck? (See what I did there?)

 

But seriously, what are they going to achieve here? It's not like it's used only on the internet.

It really boggles the mind sometimes.  I can understand a certain amount of censorship, when information on the net has a damaging effect to an innocent party (in which circumstances I believe the medium should be held accountable) but basic censorship?  what a joke.

Used to be that I was bothered by swearing but after playing the AC 2 and The Witcher 2 I got desensitised a lot  :D  that was when I was like 13ish now I generally just laugh when people swear although I personally don't swear
