I am very happy to have YouTube back, and I agree with this move. More people need to realize that freedom of speech is NOT universal, and NOT universally "good." Thai people love their king, and even though the king himself once sought to repeal the lese majestie laws, his people kept them in place. I was shocked and dismayed that some people thought that the laws in their country must necessarily apply to all countries.<br /> <br /> I think that the internet needs more efficient policing, and now that we are beginning to see technology that can do that, it becomes possible. I am not offended or outraged by this action... I am just happy I can see YouTube again... and I'm happy that one website is willing to respect the laws of other countries.<br /> <br /> I am an American living in Thailand.
