Isn't Australia trying to pass a law that will "block" any websites deemed as "unsuitable"? Its not just Turkey!!! Who would have thought a liberal country like Australia would try and do that?

Big brother is alive and well............ :roll:

Strange, I thought that the TRNC was an independent, sovereign nation.

So the rulers are animals and the ruled are people? A strange polity indeed.

I watch youtube on a regular basis, I have had it blocked only twice (for a few hours only) in the last few years.
