 I don't think such personal abuse is necessary.

You don't seem to know what ad hominem is. Hint: this wasn't.

In general, if a politician mentions any (or all) of
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Four_Horsemen_of_the_Infocalypse
and you're falling for it, you're thinking with your amygdala.
Which is exactly where the manipulator wants you to be.

The appropriate reaction is to yell Why are you lying? or
accuse them of hating our freedoms, which they most assuredly
do.

Yes, I have a kid. Doesn't change a single thing in that attitude.
 
 In my mind it's pretty easy to drawn the line, things that have victims
 should usually be illegal and things that are unpopular but don't hurt
 anyone usually should be legal.  No slippery slope necessary.

Apart from that popular truism the only reason a politician will
invoke one or more of the Four Horsemen of the Infocalypse is
in order to bamboozle his voters into something they ordinarily
wouldn't do on the their own.

Like Godwin's law, if a politician mentions pedophilia he
has automatically lost the argument.

Re: [tor-talk] help us:Korean government started to fine netizen who download child pornography without child

2012-10-21 Thread Ted Smith
This seems similar to when Australia outlawed porn involving women with
small breasts:
http://theweek.com/article/index/105766/australias-small-breast-ban

Nobody is trying to support actual images of child abuse as far as I can
tell in this thread.

There are just some who think that anything that can be logically
connected to child abuse should be illegal (like school uniforms, or
small breasts), and some who think that only images that involve actual
human children should be illegal.

This also seems similar to when the UK tried to outlaw BDSM recently,
presumably because it's similar to actual violent crimes (even though it
would be entirely consensual).

(I would like to declare myself personally as not being in either camp,
but this entire conversation is vastly off-topic for this mailing list
and probably an existential threat to the Tor project, so I'm not going
to contribute further than this, hoping that I've elucidated some of the
motivations behind the people involved such that everyone will stop
talking about it.)

Julian, thank you for speaking your mind. I am also disgusted by the term

I don't contribute to Tor, so some dude in Korea can watch youth being

see misery and suffering.

Do FBI computer guys stick mostly to forensics using off the shelf

I think it should be pretty obvious that “child pornography without

probably means something like “pornography which is incorrectly

Due to many sexual illegal behavior, Korean government started to block sexual 
video about under-18-old people(=underage video)
 
Nowadays, in south korea, they started to arrest people who download underage 
video due to child-teen law(in Korean, 아청법) However, there is big problem. If 
the title of underage sexual video include teenor school uniform, although 
people in that video is adult,
 Citizen who download that video can be arrest and they can be fine
 ₩20,000,000(=$20,000)
 
 there is many people who download videos whose names include teen or
 school uniform and which has only adult actors so they'll be fine
 $20,000 although *50-year-old actor wear school uniform*!!
 
 I think there is *no freedom in south korea's Internet*. The problem
 is they can search private message! Some people was arrested
 because of they share that one with private message!
