  • What subtle sarcasm... it's sarcasm, right?

  • "... China, North Korea and Iran are protecting their freedom and democracy..." wtf!

    yeah, we will all have a Ministry of Truth coming soon.

    Klarmachen zum Ändern! Piraten ans Ruder!

  • they got a point but i understand it after i see it second time. Changed thumbs down to thumbs up :-)

  • Nice video :)

  • this video was REALLY confusing until I realized it was sarcastic

  • yaay \o/

    i want chinese democracy !!!

  • I would like to donate with Bitcoins, where can I send them? :D

  • IMP (intercept modernisation programme) anyone? Obviously despite public spending cuts, £2bn spent on storing, analysing and reading all your email and web communications is money well spent in a democracy eh?

  • yeah, just block it, hide the crimes :)

    if you can't see it it's not happening or ...?

  • nice sites on the filterlist, scorpions

  • i agree that child porn should be stopped but with this "cleanternet" they are going to block everthing ,in my country is planning to block youtube ,wikileaks etc. you know what it means, it means blocking the freedom of speech,

    P.S if they block my porn i will terminate them

  • @TheAgregister When the Aus filter was leaked, the vast majority of it was porn, their were also gambling sites etc (and a dentist and tuckshop ladies website o.O). Porn as in, perfectly legal to own and buy in this country porn......and yet they want to block it on the net.

  • @XDVikeyevXD dude did you see scorpions wikipedia page is banned too O.0

  • @TheAgregister Lol yer that was epic fail, it Streisand effected real bad when they did that.

    en(dot)wikipedia(dot)org/wiki/­Streisand_effect

  • Comment removed

  • Epic sarcasm is epic. I love this sort of trolling.

  • joke?

  • Cecilia Malmstrom - fuckin swedish feminist

  • Wikileaks? Even Video Games (ergo, Gamespot) is on the filterlist as bad sites?! Screw this.

  • This vid has been approved by the Ministry of Truth - double plus good. : )

    nothing like a nice bit of satire

  • great video!

  • Reading the comments bellow, i cant get, how anyone cant get this is a sarcastic parody ... people are weird. Those 274 who disliked this must be either brain damaged or fckin morons or both.

  • Lol'd hard.

  • Thanks ants, thants

  • Good animation and the professional voice of this video are amazing. That's what we need to cover such important topics.

    You should mention that this video has not been made to support censorship. It seems like some people don't get it :-(

    In which way will donations be used by cleanternet to prevent censorship?

    Did I mention, that I really like Dulcie Smarts voice? ;)

  • But, but I love thepiratebay... wait that way a .se. I'm fine. *phew*

  • Almost believable in the US these days

  • fuck this shit why is wikileaks in teh list

  • This video has become... surprisingly accurate as of late.

  • @JigsWithoutWoodstock Oh, you said that a year ago... Well, you hadn't seen anything yet.

  • STOP freedom of speech? WTF? I use internet six years, and i never seen a child pornography...That people are insane, they are talking, but they don't know anything!

  • Comment removed

  • Comment removed

  • Yes! Just like North Korea, let us protect our freedom and democracy!

    Hey, wait a second!

  • Seems 269 people will never learn it.

  • @ernestoolivero I'm still waiting a virus to destroy jerks like you. You have completely lost your mind with your totalitarian ideas (death penalty, it's for decadent countries...) and your hypocritical puritanism. And you are confusing pornography and pedophilia...

    If you don't like pornography, then... don't watch it, use a parental filter software and... monitor your children !

    By the way, you should learn to use only one language when you write...

  • @ernestoolivero You know, if you don't want your children to watch porn, you could also get a program which blocks the sites for them. Don't make others responsible for the stuff your kids do. They are your kids after all, so it is your duty to make sure that they develop in the right way. Also you could forbid your children to go into the internet. That would also solve the problem.

    I agree, that porn should disappear, but the blocking system they implement does not delete it.

  • "Let's follow them into the future!" Let's not.

  • Are you going to remove my comment? how about you block it? or maybe you should take this comment and completly delete it. And infrindge on my humanly rights to state my opinion, how about you take this further and tell everyone on the planet how to live? oh wait, heh you already are.... dont you ass-weeds have anything better to do than control the world? didn't you get enoufh hugs when you were a kids?

  • Brilliance

  • Sad but true.

  • oh yeah throw ur pitch why dont you this is a fucking excuse to censor just about everything from the piratebay to fucking facebook you bastards ! go censor your fucking sleves you fucking cunts you will never take down the internet its too big so they thought they would put in block aids to try and control somthing that is too big for them, in other words their fucking biting off more than they can chew

  • This looks like a fucking joke. Seriously...

  • so.... are they serious or?

    I really really hope they aren't.

  • This is retarded.

  • Comment removed

  • Great illustration of the real purpose of proposals flying the anti-pornography flag.

    Not only is it a smoke-screen, but making child-porn harder to find would do nothing at all to deter its production. Quite the contrary; the harder it is to find, the higher its street value, the greater the incentive to produce it, the more victims. :[

  • It's disturbing how many people seem totally not to get this. :\

  • LOL NAH

  • Amazing video. The leaked blocklist on ikiwleaks.ru because the people in power didn´t approve of it was an amazing illustration of what would be coming our way with this censorship system.

  • this is how v for vendetta started

  • Let's hope the law won't go through or else a lot of countries, who have never experienced Communism, are finally going to.

  • This is so fucking scary...

  • lolled @ poor countrys hosting child pornography: USA, Germany etc. xD

  • bull $hit$

  • This is total shit... you can't break like this the constitutional rights of freedom of speech that all the people have. Because the people on the internet are people in the real world and they should have the same rights... this is totally unthinkable and really stupid. You want to kill the democracy? Freedom of speech? Want to take all our rights away?

  • @xbloodyromancez This video is satire, and is supposed to express exactly your concerns.

  • @xbloodyromancez Funny isn't it, that that's exactly what the vid is trying to tell you. You seriously didn't notice it was sarcasm, irony, and satire all over the place?

  • this is serious, the net is in the danger again, this time in the whole EU!

    >>On September 28th/29th, the committee on Civil Liberties, Justice and Home Affairs will consult on “Combating sexual abuse, sexual exploitation of children and child pornography”.<<

  • This video ought to be enough to convince anyone that internet filtering is BAD!

  • Internet censorship, MORONS. How the fuck do you agree with this shit, don't you know how marketing works? They're talking about pervs, but they want complete control. AKA Let's take all your freedoms because there's pervs out there. THEY ARE TALKING ABOUT FOLLOWING CHINA? ARE YOU A FUCKING BUNCH OF DAMN MORONS OR WHAT.

  • @22CaliberHitters Dude, if you didn't get that this video is sarcastic, you are a moron, lol.

  • @Jankunas

    good

  • @Jankunas .... and spooky like hell.

  • @Jankunas Agreed. As a sidenote, this link probably caused an entire international Pirate Party group on Facebook to be erased. I say probably as I got no confirmation or no response at all from the Facebook people... It was among the last links posted though.

    Put differently, you are spot on. ;)

  • its time to look away ppl! it also works when your apartment is being burned down by pyromaniacs! just look away! smile! and all is good in the world!

  • @dr335 xD a funny comment under a not so funny vid but i laughed my ass off xD

  • Better than the German version

  • Yeah. I got raped when i was 8. Thats why I dont like the color green. Shut up we have a gambler we need to help

  • we must stop this movement, pedophiles should be free to have access to all child porn images

  • @MrShazDude Obvious troll is obvious.

  • i've had enough democracy lately

  • Fantastick work!

    >>>_@/"

  • i first thought it was satire

  • @maikind587 Me too. I was like, lol this is really funny.

  • @maikind587 it actually is... at least the german version of this^^ and since it is from the same guy...

  • Comment removed

  • such a joke

  • This is retarded...

  • Surely this is someone trolling?

    CP and porn everywhere? Preposterous.

    It's been proven time and time again that you'd have to specifically search for that stuff - chances of "stumbling across" that content are incredibly low.

  • funny shit

  • That flower is the new swastika to me.

  • Comment removed

  • This isn't sarcasm....

  • This BETTER be satire. OH MY GOD, this better be satire.

  • @TheTubeTimeMaster1 Oh it was a great governmentpropaganda around this "great idea" here in my country. It seems there are reasons why politicians try to stop DDR-research and are so happy to tell us that we are now targets of terrorism as well. the government trojanbot is already out as far as I know. Its all already spreading.

  • @TheTubeTimeMaster1 Satire is the best weapon to wake people up.

    What is really going on is a digital fascism sneaking up on us. There are plenty of forces in this society that want to lock people in, to tie our hands and minds, to not allow us to develop. Censilia Malmström seems to be paid or fooled by one of those.

    Consider also things like when you buy a small computer today. A smartphone, these are normally locked out for people to modify or install any software of their choice. Fascism!

  • ITS A TRAP!!

  • Is it 1984 already?

  • Excellent video

    *goosebumps

  • wa-wa-wait a minute, is this really sarcasm? It seemed darned serious at the start :/ It's kind of puzzling, I don't think they're delivering their message with this video.

  • ministry of truth ... funny

  • ministry of truth ... funny

  • great video! good luck

  • directly from the manual: "how to make the hell look like heaven"...

    less bullshits please!

  • this video is priceless. it shows how people can be suckered into anything given the right arguments: like donating if it's supposed to be for 'charity', or allowing more intense censorship and removal of privacy than in worst dictatorships in history, just because zomg the children are being molested or oh noez, copyrights are infringed on..

    wake up, people, sadly there will always be thieves, lawyers, hookers, child molesters, bankers, you name it, this shit is just propaganda to rape YOU.

  • Priceless vid.

  • It’s shocking how many people did not get this *at all*! Which IMO is the only reason the totalitarian terrorists that we call our governments can even think about such an idea out loud, and not be thrown out of the country for it.

  • Democracy in Iran...wait what!?

  • This is fucking genius.

  • @RiidleMe hes german lol

  • this wont work

  • This is bullox...

    They wanna stop free speach?! Are they Muslims?!

    Using Child porn as an excuse to block pirates is just pure bullshit..

  • @Alex090 I think the joke went right over your head.

  • @starsiegeplayer

    I think you didn't understand that my comment wasn't so serious either.

  • NO! Not the wikipedia article on scorpions! 

  • God tier.

  • Absolutely Brilliant!!!!!

    Fuck Conroy and Fuck Kevin rudd; Two men who stand against democracy and wish to abolish freedom of speech in Australia!!!!!

    RIP Australian Democracy, abolished by Kevin Krudd 2010 (expected implementation date of internet censorship).

  • "Ministry of truth"

    Haha

  • I'm surprised people don't get that this is sarcasm.

  • Comment removed

  • @Puddlewhite1

    ''everywhere you look there are websites full of child pornography."

    How i wish i could believe than noone would actually believe something like that.

  • Did they just put a stop-sign over democracy? :P

  • im really thinking this has alot of flaws in it

    and its aiming way too high

    it basically relies on the honor system

  • Censorship has been getting out of hand for years now. Ill add this to a link and try to help spread the word. Keep the good fight going friend!

  • Amazing, please keep doing what you do - changing the world.

  • Comment removed

  • :-D

  • I mean, good video and respect and everything, but I think it only works on us internet-people, who have been trained in irony for years ;)

  • Is not the purpose of this video to awaken deluded people to the truth? If so, then the message is not clear enough. If I show this to my parents, then they will be confused at best. Many people will actually believe the (false) claims in the beginning.

    This kind of video will only reaffirm people who are against censorship, like me, but not reach out to others.

    I like your style, but if you wish to change something, please consider this in your next video.

  • This is a joke right?

  • @xcloudx01

    everythings perfectly fine. don't listen to these fools tryin to support global terrorism by making videos such as this one!

    nah just kidding the world actually is in great danger of becoming a prison planet...

  • The Internet is for porn.

    Go force people to live like teletubbies elsewhere.

  • Apparently blocking websites = freedom and democracy.

    Wat.

    Also this is a pretty cool idea, does the evidence wiper only remove the recent evidence or just everything?

  • Check out the video at 1:31, see the ministry of truth, aka a George Orwell reference. This instantly delegitimizes the video, as it affirms the actual workings breadth of power such an policy can enact. While child pornography is horrific and those participating deserve the absolute fullest punishment, our government is not a socialist Chinese state that can posses the power to filter the information we receive.

  • @alandawrabi And what do you think it takes for it to become one? Hint: watch the video. If we allow this to happen, we might soon see vacation posters which read "Visit China, taste some of the freedoms you once had"

  • @alandawrabi The point of this video went so far over your head it got hijacked and flown into a major landmark.

  • China's a democracy?? I must've been sleeping under a rock.

  • @ThanatosNebula76 If that line didn't make your sarcasm detector explode from overload, you should get a new one. The one you have now obviously doesn't work.

  • Did she say stop Freedom of Speech?

  • YEAH. LIKE KOREA, CHINA AND IRAN.

    sure is fucking derp around here.

  • looks like USA is the king of child porn haha

  • @dexismynickname

    We're only one of the biggest countries (people wise) that isn't third world, or that block sites (yet =.=). But sadly, we are the king of CP... :\

  • suggest learning from China .

  • Ministry of Truth, isn't that from the book 1984 from George Orwell? :D

  • this one was really good ^^

  • Totally sarcasm

  • The tyranny is doomed to die.

  • 讽刺天朝

  • Protection from democracy?

    China, North Korea, and Iran protects freedom?

    This has got to be a Big Fat Joke !!!

  • @Ne0Freedom Yes it is. In fact, it's called sarcasm. Look it up, then watch the video again.

  • This video is amazing! My first viewing was like, wtf? are you serious? Then i watched it again and noticed how very subtle and clever this video is. I totally admire the creators of this video! Love the part about poor countries not having enough resources, totally brilliant!

  • this is shit

  • this is terrifying... so if they find a nice friendly voice to dub the words "i'm going to kill you in front of your children and brainwash them to obey me afterwards, but it will all work out for the best" will people accept it all the same?

  • This is about 50% amusing and 50% scary.

  • So we are blocking 'Freedom of Speech' now?

    PS: Pi-da-file < hahahahaha.

  • Can you make one regarding phishing?

  • One of most brilliant, honest video I have ever seen online. Really.

    With the "trusted computing" video, this video goes directly to my "why Internet is the greatest thing of the last 20 years" folder, it's like, catching the Zeigeist of our modern time perfectly,

    with the smallest amount of words and images, it says everything with sincerity and simplicity, thanks a lot Alex Lehmann for that video, you made Internet a better place to live :) now it's our turn to act people !

  • People keep complaining about all this pornography on the internet.

    But when I am in the mood ( do you know what I mean ) I go looking and where the fuck is the pornography everybody is talking about? All I see is people trying to get my money to show me pornography!

    Pornography is a human right and must be free!

  • There is just not enough pornography on internet.

  • China protecting its DEMOCRACY through censorship? And the costs of blocking the internet are proven greater than prevention and therapy for victims? This is cramping my brain. It's either a Youtube Poop or the EU's hateful mistranslation on policy. *puke* Someone think of the poor children!

  • @Choochoobird

    It was a satirical video. ;)

  • @OnlySoaa Yeah, so it's a YTP: I wonder who originally made it? I was informed of this by a friend who (in part) believes this will happen in the U.S. in a similar way. :p

  • @Choochoobird

    Uh, I don't think this classifies as a poop. >_> It was an original video created by the person who posted it.

  • @OnlySoaa I see now. :D

  • Mail and P2P safe and anonymous? Really now.

  • No.

  • WHERE THE FUCK ARE MY LOLLIS?! *Watch me get taken away by men in black*

  • Is this going to be like GW from MGS2/4?

  • @Loser85

    haha, i thought the same thing

  • block... democracy? political opposition? criticism of those in power?

    well shit, one step towards a global dictatorship... I hope this video is satire, but sadly I think these people might be fucked in the head enough to believe it

  • @andetus

    just checked there website and it says it's satire on how bad this shit is... thank god

  • lets follow them into the future :D

  • Is this movie now ironic or actually serious in whether they support the blocking? O_o

  • sorry but... is it ironic? i hope so...

  • Great video. The sad part is that I only suspected satire until you said "protect their [China, North Korea, Iran] freedom and democracy." It is a bad sign when the satire so closely resembles what it is trying to ridicule.

  • Lol...some people really don't get the SARCASM in this PARODY video. Obviously he's not serious...look at just a few of the *blatantly obvious" the clues in the video:

    "CP is hosted in very poor countries" (graph shows USA to be the biggest host of CP)

    "It will help victims of...freedom of speech and democracy"

    Seriously, how can anyone not get it? Sigh...Poe's law at work here.
