“ TO BLOCK CHILD PORNOGRAPHY, UNWANTED WEBSITES, ETC., WANTED BY THE PUBLIC?
These are code phrases for Censorship. First, the scare tactics used on parents to protect children, is the same tactics used in the CEDAW Treaty campaign: "To protect women and children from our outdated traditions."
Parallelism tricks in logic to camouflage their real agenda...in this case, government usurping our "free speech" rights against censorship, which is protected under the Constitution. Hon. Sovaleni wants to be the Internet Czar of Tonga, and declaring: (1) To save our children from the horrible and sinful contents of the Internet called pornography, by getting the undying support of religious leaders (public); (2) to scare parents against the corrupted influence of the Internet on their computers and children's mobile phones (uncontrolled); (3) and government decides what's good and suitable for the public (censorship). Refer to my new article on "censorship" on Nepituno.
Let's anoint Hon. Sovaleni as the Tonga Internet Czar George I. He will tell us what's appropriate and what's good for us to receive, read, and view on the Internet. This is authoritative "statism," not the democratic liberty we were told was coming. We are not children to be lectured to, and told we're unfit to choose what's best for us; we are not intelligent enough to think for ourselves. Why not teach folks to use their "parental control" features on their computers, and on their children's mobile phone devices? We want to do our own filtering of information we receive and broadcast, not to have government do it for us. ”
