Yes, we agree with you. It must have just been an oversight.

I made an analysis of our media people like Flying duetchman and the Chief Editor.

I cannot say how I feel about them here. I am shy.

The ‘New Media’ – created and set by who ?

Thanks for your feedback on the proposal and our joint statement. Yes, we previously raised community moderation in our last seminar as well as our deregulation paper. However, in light of PM’s NDay rally speech on political changes, as well as the attention on internet political deregulation, we felt it best to highlight our disagreements on how the law in this area should be amended.

Rest assured that we will continue to make the case for community moderation and keep discussion moving forward.

Please let us know if you’re interested in helping us with research in this area.

I am afraid, maybe FTs or PRs or new citizens may be more interested with current, social and politico affairs.

no wonder they loose jobs to them.

many who migrated are the capable and able. It takes more than certificate to land a citizenship in australia or the common target places to migrate to. You need to have the mentality or money and capability and skills wanted there.

unfortunately, many who wants to migrate could not afford it based on mentality and capability and market value.

every blogger should be responsible for his own postings and anyone wronged by the blogger can take it up with him. if the blogger commits a crime, let the law go after him.

political postings is a grey area which is neither right or wrong unless they are offensive or scandalous. othewise, hmmm, why the need to ban this and that? each party should have the right to say their peace without violating the law. and we have such a thing call the right of reply or the right to sing your own song.

Just wondering what happened to the main thrust of proposing a community moderator?

Correct me if I am wrong. However, I believe it was once called the IC3 comprising part of the bloggers, readers and media experts?

Wasn’t that the main thrust of the entire “deregulate the net” initiative by the blogger 13?

I went to the URA where you guys staged a talk and I believe 90% of the discussion involved community moderation.

I have also read many of the articles here and in Bernard Leong’s site and again that appears to be the main topic in discussion.

I believe the issue of films may have only been an ancillary issue.

So its very surprising to see now that this subject which once formed the main argument should now be in the back burner.

Frankly speaking I would have preferred to see a more robust debate concerning why community moderation is such a lousy idea.

I admit whatever I have read concerning this subject is only from journalism.sg and the online citizen here, but based on my reading of the ground. I believe there is not even a single article, essay, comment that is against the whole idea of community moderation.

I am sure if there ever was, it would have been at least aggregated, linked or highlighted by the web master and his team here to give the discussion added dimension and accuracy.

So as you can see, I remain somewhat perplex why the whole idea was really given the full benefit of the light of day? I also cannot explain why the whole of blogosphere seems to be so quiet over what I consider to be a very important subject.

If this was Australia. I am sure everyone would have taken an active role in ensuring their views are well represented.

Good day

Very curious.
