That makes it sound like they are the useful idiots in a much bigger scheme.

Citation Games By the United Nations’ #CyberViolence

 

There's even citation to a file in someones own hard drive. That's the grandma error. In a research paper. For the freaking UN.

 

These people... they really have no standards or expertise, and why should they have when all the criticism can be waved away with accusations of "harassment" and "misogyny".

 

Oh right, I forgot. It isn't harassment anymore, it's "cyber violence".

Is it just me or does Moviebob sound more and more like a fascist every time I visit his twitter?
He's got some serious Superior Being mentality going on.

It's not just the future, it's "The Future".

When in doubt, blame the elves.

 

I have always hated the word "censorship", I prefer seeing it as just removing content that isn't suitable or is considered offensive

Nah, just your typical "progressive" left-winger using "progressive" rhetoric in the usual way.

 

I wouldn't say he's becoming 'more and more' like that though, it seems to be pretty much in line with this notorious tweet of his from about a year ago:

For the freaking UN.

To be fair, though, it's not like that report's going to be debated in the Security Council anytime soon, or something like that. The UN has dozens of bureaus, agencies, commissions, and whatever else the thesaurus could come up with, that operate largely independently. It's not that the standards are higher there than in any other thing that is producing papers of that sort.

From what I've read on his twitter he finds Bernie Sanders too radical, is an ardent Hilary Clinton supporter, believes Obama has done nothing wrong and thinks capitalism is an entirely neutral force in our society.

 

Sounds like a standard description of a US establishment left-authoritarian to me, but whatever. The term "liberal" is so ambiguous that I suppose it can fit too if you want it to... ;) (It was the more specific "neo-liberal" which I found strange in this context.)

Moving on, more UN silliness:

Harassing smileys?

I'm half-disappointed they didn't coin the term "cyber catcalling" for those, yet.

 

Also, I'm wondering if they intend to establish a cyber authority to cyber investigate and cyber prosecute all that cyber violence. Will there be cyber prisons? :p(<-- showing tongue, so definitely a sexually harassing smiley!)

Yep, it's basically the same as the 'congressional briefings' from earlier in the year, very little practical effect and interested parties do reports for the UN every day.

 

Doesn't mean that there won't be attempts by countries to make that sort of crap law but there would be with or without the bleating at the UN.

I hope everyone here now feels properly harassed by my cyber-exhibitionism. *pose*

I have been cyber violated.  You have shattered my innocence and I'll never get it back.
