I went to easyeverything internet cafe to find that when I went to any part of the che-lives website, it redirected me. I went to find a member of staff tio be told, as I expected, that some sites were filtered out.

We need to start oeganising a boycott movement. i think that YFRC should get involved. I can't believe they banned it. I have got their contact details.

Please reply?

Rueben, didn't you hear, it's now illegal across the globe, to talk about the way things could be better (sarcasm)...That's sad about that cafe, this is the direction things are moving, freedom of speech gets impeeded on as soon as stuff starts really getting screwy. like now.

Was it a filtering program or speciffically filtered?

One we have researched the full situation, and have sent letters to easyshit, then we will take it on board as a YFRC campaign.

Just remember that a threat loses much of its intended effect if the word "threat" is misspelled.

Yes they are related to easyjet.

They are the biggest internet cafe company and are really big here in london with a whole chain of massive premises

This is really alarming. Is Che-Lives banned in all Easyeverything Cafes or just in the particular Cafe where you have been? It would be important to know if this is an act of some local right-wing boss or even just admin, or if this is corporate policy of Easyeverything. And which sites are banned beside Che-Lives?
Thank you for announcing your support in this issue, there has to be done something about this. Please keep me updated about your research.

Just made some online research and found the following stories:

http://www.rainbownetwork.com/content/News...asp?newsid=1934 (http://www.rainbownetwork.com/content/NewsLife.asp?newsid=1934)

So there probaply are many other sites banned beside Che-Lives. I'm wodering why there is not already a big boycott campaign against them.
Anyway, it still should be possible to surf Che-Lives at Easyeverything though the alias domain Che-Lives.org

Okay, dumb question: What's an Internet cafe?

it is a place where you can go to sip coffee and go on the internet.

Oh and by the way just tell me how i can help to boycott easy everything (there is not one where i live) and i would be glad to assist

What I was thinking was that we could start organising a movement that would demand initially that Easyeverything lifts the filter on sites such as Ch-lives and any other left sites, backed up buy a boycott, I.E. those involved not going, leafleting outside their shop and generally causing a nuisance.

There are probably quite a few different groups represented on Che-lives, so the campaign possibly called"The che-lives boycott campaign" could mobilize and be run by individuals as well as groups such as YFRC to demand that the ban be lifted on che-lives.

Regarding Raisedfists question, part of the campaign could be a letter writing campaign, either to Easyeveything or to newspapers.

Of course these are just my ideas. hopefully on this thread we could formulate a campaign.

Hold up.

If some1 CAN post from one of these orange cafe's, then surely no need to boycott whole company, just one branch

Anyway, easyeverything is a great way to break from traditional rip off shitheads, like BA.

With respect, thats bollucks. Im not going to otherthrow capitalism at all, and i am in no way going to overthrow it with violence. I dont even want to overthrow it, im here to learn and work out what political ideas i do subscribe to.

But i beleive i am grown up, by understanding that sending a nasty e-mail to one internet cafe will not do this site any favours at all. I post here, and i dont wish to be represented by fools.

We will offer only "no-frills" access to the entire world wide web (no walled gardens and no access to PC installed software) whilst maintaining content filtering to avoid causing offence.

duz that mean the block uncle malte?
reading the posts, i think it was an isolated thing

Easyeverything is good shit

u can go to amsterdam for like £50 as opposed to BA for £150, so i c no problem, as its bringing down commercialised shit, and wage slaves can spend more money on shit the want
