Piping The Truth Into Your Brainballs!
Story published on October 12, 2008
Detective chief superintendent Len Hynds, from the UK’s National Hi-Tech Crime Unit has publicly called for websites with content concerning subjects such as necrophilia and cannibalism to be shut down because they incite crime.
Hynds says the reason for this thought policing is to protect vulnerable members of society from “corrupting influences”.
“For the internet to take the final step to adulthood it must first deal with those fringe elements that choose to promote abhorrent activities like cannibalism and necrophilia,” Hynds said.
Hynds says he intends to make the internet a more law abiding place by censoring it and criminalising people. His words have angered many people, including The Morningstarr* team, who believe the internet’s greatest strength is it’s wide range of subjects free from censorship.
This call for censorship is yet another knee jerk reaction to real life crime being blamed on media influences. Last month a teacher was murdered by a man who allegedly frequented sites about necrophilia, the victim’s family have called for such sites to be outlawed.
