God knows what the justification is to curb the freedom of the individual like this. Supposing a politician had a veted interest tommorow and resorts to this can it be allowed? One hopes the govt gives a plausable expplanation.

Lets stop …

lets stop travelling altogether because there are terrorists in all forms of transport…

lets stop publishing newspapers altogether as these chaps could be planting codes to send messages through the papers.

lets stop making movies as there has been news of direct involvement of the people in the business.

lets stop using mobiles and telephones altogether as these chaps use the nework to contact their counterparts.

lets tell the all businesses to pack their bags and get out alltogether as some of these people fund them.

lets stop talking as that would be the medium to communicate…

the air we breath, the sounds we hear, what we touch or feel, the emotions in our heart lets stop doing anything at all. as that will definitely stop terrorists from striking us.

and most of all, lets stop giving corrupt, crass and ruthlessly selfish people a life to run the country to their personal desintations…

lets just do one thing, and one thing alone. lets kill them all and give ourselves a new life!

jai hind!

Hi, thanks for sharing the information on Linkedin communities. It’s surprising, and I still can’t believe that India would do such. Where’s the technology going in India? I’ll be missing voices of Indians on blogsphere.

India closes access to Blogger, Typepad, and Geocities in the name of “fight against terrorism”

It is a slippery slope when democracies close down information sources in the name of blocking content that is “‘anti-national’ and ‘against public interest’.” But apparently that is exactly what happened in India, with the government blocking…
