DAFTAR FILM YANG DILARANG BEREDAR DI INDONESIA

Sensor terhadap media di Indonesia diberlakukan dalam berbagai tingkatannya sejak masa Demokrasi Terpimpin hingga Orde Reformasi. Di masa Orde Baru khususnya sensor ini dijalankan dengan sangat ketat. Hingga kini lebih dari 60 buah film dilarang beredar. Sebagian besar dari film-film itu diproduksi pada masa Orde Baru. Film-film yang kena celak itu ada yang tertahan bertahun-tahun di meja sensor atau ditarik dari peredaran karena protes dari segolongan orang atau masyarakat. Film harus disensor berlapis-lapis melalui berbagai lembaga seperti Departemen Penerangan dan Laksusda. Bahkan pejabat publik pun dapat menghentikan pemutaran film karena alasan pribadi.

Di masa Orde Reformasi sekalipun, yang konon menjalankan keterbukaan, masih ada film-film yang dilarang beredar karena berbagai alasan.

Berikut ini adalah daftar film Indonesia yang kena cekal sejak masa Demokrasi Terpimpin, hingga Orde Reformasi, dan alasan-alasannya:The Pastor's Wife

Scientists may be missing many bones, plundered from the quarry site by commercial fossil-hunters

Scientists have named a new dinosaur species "thunder-thighs" because of the huge thigh muscles it would have had.
Fossil remains recovered from a quarry in Utah, US, are fragmentary but enough to tell researchers the creature must have possessed extremely powerful legs.

ALERT: Don’t Click ‘Reporter Had A Stroke On Live TV’

The latest scamware sweeping across Facebook cruelly touts video footage of Serene Branson’s stroke during the live broadcast of the Grammy Awards, but only links to a marketing survey exposing you to malware while making a commission for the schemer.

If you’ve already clicked on this application, called Reporter Stroke, remove all signs of it from your profile — delete its messages from your wall, and then remove the app itself by clicking on the right-hand corner of your screen to account settings.  For a step-by-step tutorial on how to do this, click here to watch a cool video put together by our friends at the security company Sophos, which first identified this latest scam.

Have you seen posts about this particular scam on your friends’ walls? Has anyone reported it to Facebook yet?

Obama Meeting Zuckerberg, Jobs, Schmidt In San Francisco Tonight

Facebook Chief Executive Officer Mark Zuckerberg will join other technology executives like Apple CEO Steve Jobs and Google’s Eric Schmidt at a San Francisco meeting tonight convened by President Barack Obama, mostly to discuss job creation and other economic stimuli.

The meeting beginning at 6:45 pm Pacific Standard Time will happen at a “private residence” and will exclude members of the press, according to the president’s official schedule posted online. (We wonder whether the location might be Steve Jobs’ home.)

The event has the overt objective of following up on a White House-led initiative to encourage entrepreneurship and anything else that the technology companies could do to help stimulate the economy. But surely tonight’s discussion will also include recent events in the Middle East — how might social media enabled activists to organize protests, and whether local governments’ attempts to block access to the Internet could use some intervention by the U.S. executive branch.

Do you think the technology executives should ask Obama to engage in foreign diplomacy in the Middle East to foster universal access to the Internet?

RSA: Cyber War Mass Hysteria Is Hindering Security

Cyber-war stories from the defence industry may be a distraction, pundits told the RSA conference

International cyber threat initiatives are in danger of becoming overblown, the US government’s security chief told the RSA Conference in San Francisco.

”Cyber war is a terrible metaphor, ”said the US government’s cybersecurity czar Howard Schmidt.

Don’t make it something it’s not.” Internet attacks from hackers, spies and terrorist groups deserves serious attention, he said, but this should not be “to the extent of mass hysteria”.

Cyber-war hype is a distraction

Other thinkers seemed agreed on this. Bruce Schneier, security chief at the BT Group, said that this mass hysteria is being stoked up by government initiativescreating the impression of a “cyber arms race”. He does not believe that a cyber war is raging but that heavy-handed responses to issues such as the Stuxnet attacksare creating that impression.

Schneier believes that the headline-hitting attacks are distracting security professionals from building a foundation for security. These hyped-up events are distractions from the more critical work of protecting power grids, financial systems and medical networks, he warned.

Last month, AT&T technical lead Bill Cheswick told eWEEK Europe: “I think the word is wrong, because in some sense it is war but it is fury and sound signifiying little. It is just espionage.”

Deputy Securetary of Defence stokes the fire

The reactions formed a response to a keynote speech from William Lynn, US deputy secretary of defence, which may have stoked fears of cyber-war: “The threat is moving up a ladder of escalation, from exploitation, to disruption, to destruction.”

Lynn claimed that spy agencies have gained accessed to weapons system designs and other military plans, source codes and intellectual property from businesses and universities. Lynn sees this theft of information as the major threat, dismissing current attacks on networks as being relatively unsophisticated and short in duration.

Schneier’s fear is that we are on the verge of an IT arms race. “We haven’t seen offensive cyber weapons companies, but they are coming,” he said. “Big defence contractors are working on this – you know they would be dumb not to.”

He fears that this may lead to ill-designed software “weapons” that might be accidentally released. Just as Stuxnet was allegedly designed to attack the nuclear programme in Iran but it escaped into the wild and brought problems for other organisations.

“We are in the midst of a cyber war of words. Let’s quit pointing fingers and start cleaning up the infrastructure,” he said.
