There are countries like China , Iran, Saudi where it is very dangerous to express your
views on sensitive political events. I have wondered for years when the crack down
will start in the name of National security . It has always been going on behind the
scenes as we know with prism, but that is unwieldy and I think the threat of a major
conflict , the censorship of WW11 would quickly close everything down. The BBC News
I think I read somewhere can be taken over if a major crises happened.......

‘A blogger who claimed the murder of soldier Lee Rigby was a hoax aimed at stirring up
anti-Islam hatred was arrested in a 2am raid yesterday.
Christopher Spivey, 51, a tattoo artist from Rochford, Essex, was arrested on suspicion
of harassment via social media after police raided his home and took away computer
equipment.
Mr Spivey claimed in internet articles that he spent hours researching footage of Mr
Rigby’s killing and the aftermath to ‘prove’ that the British establishment had faked the
murder to incite hatred towards Muslims.’

The law was approved by Russia's upper house of parliament in April.
It includes measures to ensure that bloggers cannot remain anonymous, and states
that social networks must maintain six months of data on its users.
The information must be stored on servers based in Russian territory, so that
government authorities can gain access.

'Free expression'
Hugh Williamson, of New York-based Human Rights Watch, has called the
law "another milestone in Russia's relentless crackdown on free expression".
"The internet is the last island of free expression in Russia and these draconian
regulations are clearly aimed at putting it under government control," he added.

Putin Russia's president was once a staunch defender of internet freedoms
Russian bloggers are bracing themselves for the moment when Russia's
new "information security law" comes into force on 1 August. Some already share
advice on how to use proxy servers in order to access social media sites that, in
their view, are under threat of being closed.
It is hard to see how the law will be enforced. The servers for most of the popular
social media platforms that many Russians use are based outside Russia.
Many popular bloggers are already looking for, and apparently finding, ways
to "cheat" the feature that counts page visits and keep their daily unique visitor
numbers just under 3000, or to make sure that the statistics are hidden altogether.
Anton Nossik, who is considered Russia's "internet guru", wrote in his LiveJournal
blog that the new law didn't threaten individual bloggers directly, but provided legal
grounds to block popular social networks like Facebook, Twitter, LiveJournal and Google.
"The issue of banning all these platforms in Russia is a political one and it will be
decided by only one person", Mr Nossik wrote, with a thinly veiled reference to
President Vladimir Putin.
Earlier in the year, Russia enacted a law that gave the government powers to block
websites without explanation.In March, Moscow blocked the blog of Mr Navalny,
along with two news sites and a organisation run by Garry Kasparov - a vocal critic
of the Russian government.
In a statement, Russia's prosecutor general's office said the blocks were imposed
because of the sites' role in helping stage illegal protests.
Earlier this week, Twitter blocked access to an anti-Kremlin account that often
publishes leaked government documents, following a request by Russia's federal
communications agency Roskomnadzor.
Yandex Mr Putin said Russian search engine Yandex is controlled by foreign
intelligence 'CIA project'
For many years, Russia had relatively lax internet laws.
However Moscow has recently changed its tune, with Mr Putin branding the internet
an ongoing "CIA project".
He also claimed that the popular Russian search engine Yandex was controlled by
foreign intelligence.
Two years ago, Russia enacted a law enabling authorities to blacklist and force
certain websites offline without a trial.
The government said the legislation was designed to protect children from harmful
internet content, such as pro-suicide or pornography websites.
On Thursday, lawyers for US intelligence officer Edward Snowden said the
whistleblower had filed for refugee status in Russia.
Mr Snowden received temporary shelter in Russia last year.
He had evaded US authorities after he leaked classified government documents
revealing mass surveillance programmes undertaken by the NSA in the US and
GCHQ in the UK.
