  1. Wrong, I live in NZ and Australia� on China Orders E-Mail Screening · · Score: -1

    The standard rules say the Governor General of Australia or New Zealand may dismiss a minority government which doesn't call an election. (the NZ government is a minority)
    The GG can also dismiss any government which tries to abolish the monarchy regardless of how much support that government has. (it happened in Australia in the 70's)

    Feel free to declare your wish to abolish the monarchy and see how many civil servants start spying on you.

    A democracy is a government which is elected by the people. A democracy has a written constitution.
    A monarchy is a government which is elected by being born. A monarchy has the word of the monarch.

    In a democracy, law must be constitutional.
    In a monarchy, law is whatever the monarch says it is.

    You could argue that america has currently reverted to a monarchy because the president is the son of a former president.
    The unconstitutional USA PATRIOT act is the perfect example of the president removing constitutional rights to behave like a tyrant.

    The best place to subvert the government is from the inside.
    I know someone who is doing just that.

    I'd never bother with subversion, if I ever worked for the Government I'd just keep them incompetant so they'd never get anything done.

    Come to think of it, most civil servants work that way anyway.

    In china PGP and all other forms of cryptography is only allowed to be used for state communications, not private use.

    I hoping to get my Samizdat protocol going this year, it can disguise the encryption as something else altogether.

    For the moment, they should just use steganography to hide messages in pictures, stories or news articles.

    A good one in english is to quote shakespeare after privately agreeing on the meaning of a line.

    In the US, UK, Canada, France, Russia, China, Australia and New Zealand.

    All these countries have an Echelon type program which reads all emails from the ISPs in that country.

    The only point is that china has enough people to actively read everyone's email, every other country just listens for keywords or people.

    I scored (0.25, -5.08) which means I'm a balanced libertarian.

    I think the problem is it's only 2D, they should expand the questions and display colors based on political preference.
    For example, I'm a Liberal Green and it should make that distinction rather than just saying I'm a balanced liberal.

    Now that I've linked to another webpage I shall now get an Informative score.

    China will GPL their filtering software, on closer inspection it will be revealed to be the SlashCode for modding down threads.

    Linux is not free, it is a communist dictatorship where all programs are Property of the State.

    Liberty is the right to choose to do what you want to do, it is the exact opposite of the GPL.

    All this talk of the great firewall of china makes me glad to work on the Samizdat protocol.

    Samizdat (publication of subversive literature) is a KAOS project technically known as an Agile Network.
    This is basically something like gnutella with a wide dispersal of information over ports (hiding in other protocols) in an encrypted fileswap service.

    It makes it impossible to tell which computer the information originated from, who received it and what was transmitted.

    >We started as a right-wing gov't in all respects,

    >This is where it gets muddy. America certainly started with a right-wing government in the sense that it was a military government led by General Washington. On the other hand, by the standards of the day (Monarchies-a-go-go) the country's ideals as a whole were pretty left-wing.
    > Compared to today, perhaps, it appears right-wing but then there are few, if any, monarchies (ie monarchs with real political power) left in the English-speaking world today.

    So who is the Queen of England? is she not also the Queen of Australia and New Zealand?
    Can she not dismiss any Government of the UK, NZ or Australia?
    > I would argue that America today is more right wing than in 1776 as it has not moved as much as the rest of its peers towards the very ideals it was set up in the name of and has refused to look at some of the errors that were made in those early days, such as the 2nd amendment.

    So what if America is right wing, at least they have the freedom to democratically choose what to do.
    The UK, NZ & Australia merely have an appearance of democracy with a monarchy that can do what it wants.
    If going right wing is the price to pay for democratic freedoms, then I support the american revolution and any that may come to Australia, New Zealand or the United Kingdom.
