no can do

di UAE ni.. jika kita browsing the internet
dan 'ingin / cuba' untuk ke website tertentu
yang mengandungi bahan-bahan lucah khususnya
yang mengandungi bende-bende yang dilarang
di bawah undang-undang di UAE..
pastinya kita tidak akan dapat ke website tersebut

the authority (through the telco)
will block the net users from viewing such websites
those contained porno, religious issue that is against Islam,
criminal skills, and the like

in short...
if the websites title ada perkataan seperti
sex, nude, lesbians, gays, xxx, hate-islam..
that's it.. i think and hope you got the drill..

contoh lain.. even youtube.com
(only until recently.. or at times..) have been blocked..
kalau/sebab mempunyai unsur-unsur dimaksudkan..

hanya di beberapa area / zones sahaja di UAE
where the internet browsing will be as free..
i.e. free trade zones, Dubai Internet City (rival to our MSC)
Dubai Media City, etc

apapun.. bila sebut pasal blocking ni..
teringat dulu.. Malaysia pun dengarnya ada nak buat kan?
but.. 'optional'... iaitu pengguna 'dinasihatkan'
membeli the software untuk block such websites..
instead of blocking them right from the source (the telcos)

is it still on ?
