Internet Blackout NZ

New Zealand's new Copyright Law presumes 'Guilt Upon Accusation' and will Cut Off Internet Connections without a trial. Join the black out protest against it!Over the last week Twitter and Facebook users across New Zealand and the world, have been blacking out their avatars in protest of S92A, a change in New Zealand's copyright law that will require ISPs to disconnect any user accused of copyright infringement. No proof or evidence is required, just accusation. This is a terrible law for many reasons, which are well documented on CreativeFreedom.org.nz, and elsewhere.

S92A protestors blacked out in Wellington last ThursdayThe online protest stimulated and supported a physical protest in Wellington outside the Beehive (beehive.govt.nz is a Drupal website) (NZ's parliamentary buildings) last Thursday. It inspired others to follow-up with a website blackout event today, Monday 23 February. I already partially blacked out my blog last week, however this blackout will be more thorough than my website-decolouration or 'grey-out'.

I have created a Drupal module to help any Drupal websites owners quickly blackout their website, if they want to participate. Currently it's only a Drupal 6 module, however if anyone really wants it for their Drupal 5 website and doesn't have the technical skills to backport it, I may help out with this.

Minta bantuan - akses Internet untuk penghuni wad Hospital Serdang/Putrajaya

Assalamualaikum

Adik perempuan saya kemalangan jalanraya dan sekarang terpaksa duduk di Hospital Serdang dekat Putrajaya selama 6 minggu

Saya tak tahu samada akses Internet wireless / kabel, atau cybercafe, atau akses percuma ada diberikan kepada penghuni wad

Jika ada yang mempunyai idea, atau mempunyai bisnes berkaitan akses internet, atau fasiliti wireless contohnya izzi.com.my wireless personal yang boleh disewa atau diberi guna percuma selama berada di wad, saya sangat menghargainya (saya ada laptop wireless sendiri)
