Federal gov seeks to ban TikTok, Telegram & 1XBet

[Illyria]

Whilst draconian in nature, legally nor technically, could they ban, with their influence extending no farther than Hormuud in Xamar.

 

[Che -Guevara]

Hormud has a lot of tentacles in the Government. They won't comply either.

[Game changer]

Dhawr bilood kadib same policy baanu soo dejinayna ,   xoogaa xabsiyada baa nagu cidhiidhiya ,  dawlada  somalia way saxsan tahay , muqdishu tiktok dadka ugu badan ee ismaaciila waa jareer.  Waa inay beerahooda Ku laabtan .

Ma xumo qadiyad ahaan laakiin waa inay xeerka saxda ah soo maraan - golaha wasiirada la horgeeyo, ansaxiyo; baarlamaanka la geeyo, laga doodo, laga badalo wixii loo baahdo, la ansixiyo; ka dibna madaxweynaha saxiixo.

Laakiin waxee waraaqdaan u soo saareen waxee rabeen in aanan bannaanbaxyaasha Xamar ka socday laga hadlin.

The other two,  ban them, Telegram, everything goes , and very dangerous, 1xbet is bad as khat, gambling, very bad for the society, ban them.

By glancing at the letter, a few things stand out:
a) The infamous Nation security argument, made famous by the military regime in silensing dissent, is being used to shut down said apps; it further misuses Articles of the Constitution, for example it references Article 10, sections (2), which provides:

• 'Human dignity is inviolable and must be protected by all', however, section (3) of the same Article provides:
• 'State power must not be exercised in a manner that violates human dignity'. The intent and the spirit of seeking to ban apps, which leads to further violations, is a direct violation of the provisions of said Article.

Further, this letter violates provisions of Article 18, sections (1), (2), and (3), and most specifically, section (3), which provides:

• 'Freedom of expression includes freedom of speech, and freedom of the media, including all forms of electronic, and web-based media'.

Could someone remind, and explain to the hasty Minister that he is in direct violation of the Constitution, and has legally no leg to stand on.

If they do succeed, then they shall ban X, yt, fb etc, and as MMA noted in another thread, social media is the only 'check and balance' in place to keep these pseudo politicians in check whilst holding them to account. 

We are either a nation of laws, or the wild west.

He might be in trouble by overstepping his boundary, if the Parliament has any teeth.

 

[Illyria]

So, there is a  Council of Ministers.

I just wrote this a few days ago.

Well, unlike the dim Minister, you understand how government works; you should throw your hat in the ring in the next selection cycle.

Hate speach and khwarijism should be banned. In no countrey is hate speach and fanning the clanes of tribal hatred or religous extremism allowed neither should be it allowed in Somalia.  For heavens sake just look at Ethiopia. Oromos calling for butchering Amharas and vica verse.  Radio Hutu . Somalis are not spared. Every somali have found social media as platform to spread madness, What I dont understand is though how the old arch-kharijite Xasan Daahir Aweys  is in house arrest but could be able to spread takfirism and fikratul-wâhabiyya. Add to that,while Somalia is engaged in a war against al-Shabaab you even have a certain shaykh on youtube with thousands of followers who is officially between the lines the religous mouth piece of Al-shabaab. Hey!  Former Al-qaeda leader Abu Mansur was  given the religous ministry  post if I am not mistaken. If the seat was appointed to 4,5 could they not find the famous  traditional sunni scholars of Baardheere or Baraawe, the only viable agro-religious community and institution that Somalia had pre-colonial times and untill now.

Nin yaabay waxaas dhahay waa yaaabay!  I have been saying for years that the civil war have impacted on many ways, politically, socially, but even religously. While Saudis are abondoning the boat they created we Somalis were the ones quick to jump off our shafite madhab.   We are quick at shape shifting, cheering once for the military, then clapped in parades for jewish racist evil  marx and a russian filthy murderor leninism. We then skipped that boat to Reagan.

We were forced to read the poems of  a warlord who murdered a revered religous person (I do not deny his hatred for colonialists). The hypocrosy is that in the south, once folks got in their private homes he was man to be cursed.  We could not spare to aknowlidge that that man commited crimes and was controversial but could be commemorated for his disdain for the colonialists.  No compromise. We did that lead to? dillusion of his heroic acts of defending somalis against the british and the italians.  At the same time, the religous figures who like Qulatayn, and those defended the somali coast line, not a single  book was written about that. 

 No ideological path has been chosen by us, made by us, for us, mainly somalism for the somali horn.

 

Social Media  has been a drama show for somalis,  a modern day "fadho-ku-dirir" but one with a nasty tone becouse of mentally ill people leaving alienated in Europe or America.  Its hard even to find a single decent channel that tackles with philosophical issues like what somalism is.  A funny side note,  I will not name  him, but a guy made  name for himself by boasting about somalism and making interviews with important people in our history. All credit goes to him. But listen carefully to every interview. The guy does not even let the interviwer finish the story.  Its all about emotions.  Not a single  channel has been dedicated to why we have famine, misery and the most corrupt nation in the world. Is it our culture?  Is Somali culture monothilitic or pluralistic?. Tough questions is never discussed in a intelectuall manner.  By the way,  the so called journalist who came to fame by somalism was the first one to be includeded a photographed by a call by his "clan" in a shady room in Nairobi.
