    Yes, if a totalitarian government is what we want to have. The Myanmar government has tried this with some success but technology always seems to find a way to get around firewalls. In any case, this would be a desperation move at best. It shows they have run out of other options to win the hearts and minds of the people.
    Success is not final. Failure is not fatal. It's the courage to continue that counts.

    Great minds discuss ideas. Average minds discuss events. Small minds discuss people.

    Sorry Prince, but the correct term would be “Freedom of Expression”. Speech is used when you vocalize, orate or when it is spoken. Blogs are mostly written.

    tenks for the correctness.....The synonymous term freedom of expression is sometimes preferred, since the right is not confined to verbal speech but is understood to protect any act of seeking, receiving and imparting information or ideas, regardless of the medium used.

    seeing someone in the streets talk bout "these things" and then you just seal his mouth with a tape when you don't like what he said...

    NO!

    nature always finds a way. when the truth coming out of someone's mouth is unjustly shut, the truth comes out from the other end of the body. and that's what the censor deserves.
