Neck And Shoulderaccident

JMStV - Between ignorance, ignorance and resignation

hardly a topic in the German Internet as intense debate, such as the Youth Media Protection State Treaty, just JMStV, which plays from January 2011 to us. We, who are active on the Web. As a blogger, website, forum or portal operators, shop owners or other Web-Active. First of all, does not matter whether in private or mission to make a profit, that is commercial.

The policy has once again managed, involving lobbyists and firm order to incompetent "lawyers" to generate a body of law that more than just insecure.

What it is in detail?

to put it simply to protect children and young people from "development affecting content on the Internet. It is discussed here, the legislature has a principle that, in print and on TV was apparently effective in the past: either transmission time setting (which is in the form of web presence is not feasible) or an age identification or a filter for age groups. Both variants are optional since come to use can, where they are available "development affecting content. And: The assessment of whether this is the case, should make the provider of online content itself, ie a categorization into age groups.

resignation

Many blog operators - including well-known very well how Vzlog.de have already announced to take its website from 31.12.2010 online. A large part is certainly the decision based on the current arcane legislation have made. Otherwise I assume, already more than the desire on blogging lost and now found a hook to have to save face.

The decision to discontinue the online activities that must each make for themselves. I personally think it (the object of the Online.Inhalte) with the current state of knowledge is not appropriate. were first introduced the emissions sticker for cars, the majority of car owners will not be given set of wheels in the scrap press ...

ignorance

Ignorance is no excuse, we have learned. The majority of the ignorant will read this or the many other blog posts and not the subject so very not get noted. Many will go on as before, and - probably - no consequences . Feel

If you then, however, refuse to JMStV read the comments, will be quickly realized that (so quote at least my opinion) is also under the allegedly did not inform the ignorant few. I find it appalling, at least what is being partly given as reasons for rejecting it.

ignorance

The ignorant are actually the happiest of his contemporaries. In most cases, they manage to recognize sensitive situations not (they actually belong in the group of ignorant) or do not recognize. The latter constellation creates time and space for a relaxed / relaxed life - And usually they are in fact much unscathed. There is no guarantee factor, however, is not it. and the specific issue and certainly not because no one knows how - so that law because the 01 Into force in January - look law interpretations.

Conclusion

I have to admit that I can draw no conclusion. None of what is legally sound and resilient on the basis of currently available information. Rein tend I think the excitement of recent days personally excessive. Just out of the conviction that such a legal Stuss implemented even in Germany do not practice effective can be.

thinking

who has so far not received the expected response, which I can think of finding some links with on their way. The information there are just as subjective as it is my contribution. It may help but their own positioning.
