Have you ever found yourself feeling lonely and totally hated in the vast ‘nets?
Did trolls hunt you down in forums and hijack your posts? Have you ever been insulted by a total stranger for no good reason?
Have your like, totally original blog posts been stolen by strangers? Or your glittery avatar? Or your wannabe emo pic?
Has anyone *gasp* sent you e-mails in which he insults and threatens you?
No fear! Greek politicians are here to help you.
Soon in a blog near you. With a law as stupid as Greeks.
P.S. For the noobs out there, some stupid airheads of politicians decided to “guard” the greek blogs, to protect other people’s personalities, to sue unknown commenters and bloggers, because like, someone wrote bad stuff about them on the ‘nets. And they wanna make a law limiting bloggers’ anonymity and free speech.
How typical of Greeks. Such drama queens. Such noobs. Such ignorants.
I was never this much glad that this blog is in english. I don’t want anything to do with them.

We are partially responsible of this filthy mess. We permit certain people do certain things. However I do believe we don’t deserve this in the end.

What I hate is how Greece is becoming a universal tech joke because of these people.
Remember the nice times when netcafes were shut down due to stupid gambling laws?
Ah, the fun.

Do you think the word Chaos describe what we have in Greece?
Here is a link I really liked (sorry for the non-Greeks around, but no english version available)

And not only the net-cafes… Technically they band all video-games as well (the only nation on earth) because the guys who wrote the laws had no idea of defining gambling and video games!!!
Viva Greece!

The whole thing is a typical Greek contradiction. We do act sometimes like prehistoric creatures. They used to do 2 things whenever they faced something unknown. Either they praised it like God or they burned it to hell.

Undoubtedly there shall be some kind of stupid law. And it will be as stupid and anachronistic as possible. But it’s not just the politicians to blame. I believe the biggest hint was given by the journalist mr. Evaggelatos at ANT1 news, were he said in the middle of an argument over the issue: “the point is that because of those free blogs, I might even loose my job” (free translation)…
And while he and the others like him are the voice of the people, there shall be no progress at all.
However that law, whatever it is, it will not last long, just like the internet cafes.
Oh, and Sugarenia baby, don’t forget you are Greek, too…

@Svelon
Who cares. I love this country, but I can’t stand the mentality of people.
@Nicola
We may still have, really. It’s just called the Press now.

Greek people suck & the country is one big, dried out old teet. That the big babies have sucked dry after 69 years of communist-crybaby tantrums.
How dare those Greek, sad excuses for a set of testicles, pretend to be “MEN”!
Greece has had a 5000 year lead on everybody, and as of 2009 greece has produced nothing but Methane Gass!
edit: I removed the curse, sorry, this is not the place.

peinknuckle is right with the Greek quote
Sparta died out because most of them were gay
and the “Greeks” say everything is theirs and then we have to make a humiliating comeback towards them like this: “A Greek and an Italian were fighting over who had the greatest history. The Greek said they invented sex but the Italian said they introduced it to woman.”
The Greek claimed they invented sex so the Italian must claim that they showed it to woman
