A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.

Well I just did, it's on charge.org and I'm Australian
This is stupid. People not living in that country should not be able to decide. It's like Russian people would decide what I can access and not in my country... Sorry not being personal here, I just find this is wrong. I am not taking your rights way if you have the right to apply, just saying my opinion.
People living in other countries aren’t deciding. It’s a change.org petition, it doesn’t mean shit.
It's a change.org petition .... it's not going to decide anything.
That's not the point. The point is that people not living here wants to change things they are not affected by. I'm not trying to change the USA too, because I don't live there. I mean that by principle. Edit: And for clarification, I didn't insult the person I was responding to. I meant the concept is stupid, not the person.
The EU is not a country. I thought this was basic stuff.
Also its a change.org thing, nothing official. It will just show interest at best
I'm surprised this was understood wrongly. If the EU blocks it EU wide, then it is blocked country/nation wide in my country. I never said EU is a country. But discussion about these language stuff just takes away from the actual problem and topic of the issue I was talking about. But if that is the important stuff you guys want to talk about, well go ahead.
And it does not matter if this is official or not for what I was talking about. People who don't live in my country should not decide what access I should have.
