Fear of Blogs

Anti-Blogs Propaganda.
I am convinced that an anti-bloggers campaign is underway.
Today I am hearing about "politically-motivated" blogs. Whatever that means. Blogs by individuals who have political motives?
Well, that's what our Information Minister said. He thinks he can fix the problem (with bloggers) the Singapore way. But he hasn't got it quite right. Read it here.

Too many general and vague statements about blogs and bloggers.
Some statements don't make sense.

Must be made out of fear because people cannot be that "sense-less". Or can they?

These are not criticisms of blogs and bloggers. These are attacks, against specific blogs. Systematic attacks to discredit some influential bloggers. Never mind if the rest get hit.

Nothing spelt out yet. But we get the message. The heat is on.

"Stop criticising what you perceive to be excesses and abuse in government and by the government, of bad decisions and anything you see to be an example of poor administration."

"Stop blogging or else!"

Or else what?

"Or else we will put the fear of government into you."

Are bloggers getting out of control?

Are blogs bad? Are bloggers worse?

I think not.
