<div><br></div><div>Two, having two hundred plus laws for every post makes it a bit difficult to...well, have any post.</div><div><br></div><div>Three, Facebook has a real name policy.

<div><br></div><div>Bertrand de la Chapelle has a great project exploring some of these issues, internet and Jurisdiction ( <a href="http://www.internetjurisdiction.net/" target="_blank" style="color:rgb(17,85,204)">http://www.internetjurisdiction.net</a> ). He's concerned, as am I, about social media companies Terms of Service (ToS) being de facto Constitutions. Rebecca MacKinnons <i>Consent of the Governed</i>...fantastic book about, in part, the danger of rule by private ToS. She's particularly concerned, as are many of us, about the incremental loss of anonymity online by things like real name policies...and seemingly proposals like yours.</div>
<div><br></div><div>Do you by any chance mean "Picture upload should be banned"...I don't think you are calling for everyone to scan and upload pictures if they have pornographic contents etc. Although I'd prefer that to the banning option.</div>
<div><br></div><div>Were you aware that pornography is the second most popular use of the internet (it used to be number one but those social media sites have replaced them)? Porn users have rights too. I happen to live at times in jurisdictions that do not have hate crime laws, sharia law and the like. I'm perfectly happy with the free speech I have there.</div>
<div><br></div><div>Congratulations on Indonesia's Facebook status. Was there a wider point here? I think of the tens of thousands of Indonesians who bought Lady Gaga tickets the minute they went on sale in Indonesia...against the tens or hundreds of people protesting the Innocence of Mohammed.</div>
<div><br></div><div>Your proposal to hold social media sites responsible for content loaded by it's members is dangerous and must be rejected in whole. That would effectively end social media as we know it. I would encourage this Constituency to join me in respectfully rejecting your proposal in it's entirety.</div>

<div>Facebook should enforce their policy:<br>
1. Picture upload by a person... the person should be accountable
for any pictures upload.<br>
2. Picture upload should be scanned if it has pornographic
contents, child pornography, lead to terorism, hatred against
race, religions and so on...<br>
<br>
Here Facebook should be accountable... where ever they
operate..since every country now has Cyberlaw for their own
territory. Indonesia now ranks four of FB user in the world.<br>
So not only gain profit from advertisement, but also accountable
for its content loaded by its member.<br>

<div>It seems that people who want to control the
Internet always need an excuse to explain their
actions. It used to be that they used stopping child
porn. It seems this is changing to fighting
terrorism.</div>
