Redbean 11 Jun 2016: Civil Servants no access to internet
The challenges of this separation: (1) social engineering on the rise (2) tortoise-slow network workstation, especially if shared by group (3) snapping of sensitive data with personal mobile phone (4) blah blah blah ...
Redbean 1 Apr 2016: Changi Resort beckons for the pioneer generation
More lazy bargains on the card not to miss for the (internet) fun, free fibre wifi n charging points available, over freedom/ privacy.
Redbean 14 Jan 2016: Data theft – Singapore is so bless
Similarly, Data Sharing (or leakage) is common with misuse/ abuse of smartphone. Company email is a forgotten (proper) channel for transmitting official document. People (strangely) prefer to communicate/ share (official) work matters/ issues thru (unofficial) sites such as Skype/ WhatsApp.
Redbean 9 Jan 2016: China taking a tough stand against terrorism
#1 is Illegal Demand that opposes Protection Law (such as PDP/ IP). Asking technology firm to break the encrypted code is the same offence as ordering authorised person (with secret passwords) to misuse/ abuse the sensitive code.
#2 is Unrealistic Demand that opposes (respectful) Freedom of Speech. The media is already restricted with mechanism (against terrorism) like content moderation/ blockage n Internet Law.
Amos Yee 6 Jan 2016: The epic story of Amos Yee on the run from the law
Have u applied for NS deferment for whatever good excuse, not lame excuse of hiding in Singapore? Otherwise, later (army) Military Police would also visit ur parent everyday if u AWOL in Singapore.
Amos Yee 18 Dec 2015: PPP filing a police report against Calvin Cheng shows that they are retarded
Do send a message (or make a call) to your beloved parent with Skype (or WhatsApp) if you have not, before you continue with your highly-exposed/ hyper-active presence on the internet.
AY is an auto-inclusion to ica blacklist, under 24 by 7 monitoring. Govt will wait for his own return, the day he wishes to. Singapore will 'miss' his appearance here, especially his parents.
TOC 4 Dec 2015: Calvin Cheng and Amos Yee: Where should we draw the line on freedom of speech?
CC/ AY/ manipulators alike are ungentlemanly in common, and only strive to be lowest/ worst against their low/ bad challengers.
CC will not hesitate to deal heavily (or killings in his eyes) even with 'cruel' young children to influence the media and masses.
AY will not hesitate to make fun of the dead (or hatred in his mind) even with 'respectable' former PMs to achieve his goals.
Redbean 29 Nov 2015: Lawlessness in Singapore
Not so safe (with internet) as you think (at home) - be warned of (illegal) eavesdropping, spying, penetrating, cracking from (even legitimate) underhand sources.Catherine Lim 16 Sep 2015: Mentoring Program on Writing Skills: Supplementary Notes
Any chance you will provide a more friendly all-in-one PDF version?
Will add this great stuff for my Green PDF Read as well. Thank you!
Catherine Lim 27 Jul 2015: Decision Regarding Present And Future State Of My Website
Thank you for sharing your blog posts for (new and old) followers, especially historical and political stuff
Hope you will start migrating your posts (minus book ads) to a free domain before closing this paid website
Catherine Lim 13 Jul 2015: Invitation To Aspiring Political Commentators
Beside being literally good and right, I believe it is important to be visually clear and bright at times.
May your professionalism climb to greater heights on your new endeavour with both Words and Graphics.
Amos Yee 1 May 2015: A piece of trivial news
Like you say, you are the first kid to face the unbelievable situation, your parents are the closest kin to take the unbearable frustration.
Being a not-so-normal person (like you), I am glad that I did not cause much trouble to my parent when I was a child.
Just my peanut view, I have serious doubts only on #1 (not #2) on your bail term, so wait for next bailor (maybe Roy).
You seem to accuse your abusive father, but have forgotten your parents' remind/ nag/ warning (in particular, on the painful father) a zillion time.
You seem to fight all you can, but deny the same rights you fight for (in particular, on the respectable late PMs) to other people except yourself.
Say sorry (in particular, to the first-and-last person with you at this stage) and go on live with greater HUMOR.
TOC 13 Nov 2014: Better protection for consumers who signed up for fibre broadband
Would take many years (2 years FB Trial Run . 2 years FB Flip Flop . . .) to meet promised Quality of Service . Aw Snap . . . !
@mrbrown 2 Nov 2013: Dear all, government websites are under ...
Think harder on Internet Security, hacking may happen to anybody anytime (fyi comments are blocked at one of your sites).
Imagine below on Google Search
mrbrown.abc/ This site may be compromised.
mrbrown.xyz/ This site may harm your computer.
You just want to sit and watch? At least do necessary clean-up/ use a stronger password (A-Z mix alpha, 0-9 num, special char)
Mitsueki 2 Nov 2013: The Anonymous Legion declaring “War” against the Singapore Government
Report websites that are compromised (whether directly or indirectly) so that innocent users will not be affected, if you understand what Internet Security really means!
Well, amktc must be a popular target for hackers? Thought amktc should had cleaned up website 1 year ago (about May 2012) after I reported (indirectly) after Google Search (by chance) on something else.
TOC 29 Jul 2013: You Have Missed The Point, Prime Minister
What do the writer/ cartoonist actually want PM to response with so MANY missed the point? Just read and laugh on comical stuff?
If anyone want to bring up any serious stuff, the very least to do is to stop the lame excuse of putting everything fictitious.
Could the writer list here a particular gentleman stuff that the cartoonist had done to correct at least ONE missed the point?
Lucky Tan 14 Jun 2013: It is the govt that has to be regulated not the online news
Just for real world, the relevant authority (MCI/ MDA/ IDA/ ...) already not monitoring/ fighting all the way against bad people (from fake/ unethical/ unlicensed spammer/ scammer/ advertiser to misuse/ unauthorized/ hacking/ cramming/ fraud/ ...) to protect the common people.
It is really amazing that the government has extra time/ effort/ resource/ priority to impose additional law (monetized license over ‘rich’ website) on the local internet community.
SG Web Reviews 12 Jun 2013: An ungrateful ex-Singaporean
Some of the points here are equally self-centered (not his limpeh right?) – at least he is so far a good not-so-bad citizen elsewhere and has not let down Singaporeans.
Many citizens here may not support him to continue his awareness lessons (to extreme of belittling small country on virtual space) since he is already in better bigger country.
My simple thought for him would be to concentrate on his future/ long-term plan – maybe make it big on real world (more than just an ex-Singaporean owning properties) if he can?
Mr Brown 30 May 2013: MDA displays its light touch once again
Singapore already has ample rules/ regulations/ ... to restrain websites from crossing over the red line. If MDA really want to be consistent, the criteria of websites with 50,000 unique IP access (arbitrarily unassessable) will just mean false hope/ measurement.
Perhaps, the better/ realistic catch for MDA will be to go after those news websites with huge revenue ($50,000 website worth), through account fees/ online ads/ ...? However, are MDA priorities still to protect the common people against misuse/ fraud/ ...?

An Exceptional Blogger Award to Feed Me To The Fish ☆ 5 Years of Social Work/ Service on the Web for Singapore
Molly Meek 5 Sep 2012: PAP’s Engagement Yields Results [Or: Who is afraid of being radical?]
My two cents worth of thoughts
1 cent advice to WP MP on Shutdown PC: Please do not ask netizen to shut down PC and break the internet connection, especially when there is no real connection between government and Singaporeans. The more courageous netizen can do parallel task on some real hands-on stuff and see the reality of life.
1 cent feedback to Yahoo! Singapore on SILENCE THE HATE: The Silence style is just 1 level down the Hate style. Try the kinder style of asking people to Think Over and Jump Over style? Sensible people will take the kind advice, and trouble makers will forever be sore losers.
How about give the lady another chance to see/ hear/ learn in public bus/ place, giving benefit of doubt that she is another nobody, just equally not-so-rich, ..., like most Singaporean?
Feed Me To The Fish 1 Mar 2012: I am Nobody, Just a Singaporean Blogger
Do small favour to loved ones by not posting everything in the air (minus hatred). One small consolation is only #3 will be answered pretty soon.
A gentle note – Jack be nimble, Jack be quick, Jack jump over The ‘hatred’ stick.
Today 8 Apr 2011: Temasek Review to shut down, says website editor
With so-called MSM in favor of the government, new media sites (though presented in very much different way) do play significant part towards right direction for good social development of Singapore.
In any case, be it TODAY/ ST/ TR/ TOC, any one-sided/ exaggerated/ overblown issues (like Water Festival/ YOG Indecent Meal in the past) may turn out to be in bad taste to many other people.
Today 10 Nov 2010: Today has grown steadily in reputation and readership
For whatever ridiculous reason, there remain some people who still resist change in new media, but are at times just echoing nice picture and trumpeting hypocrite to be in favour of minority few.
Ironically, the biggest hurdle to see true real improvement to professional and integrity in journalism, is still the lack of true genuine support from the current one-party dominant government.
Today 21 Oct 2010: It’s now New Temasek Review
With so-called MSM in favor of the government practically all of the time, it is not difficult to understand why appearance of many such new media sites.
From many media sites, smart readers will be able to see through misleading and doubtful reporting due to lack of true professionalism and integrity.
Will there be a NEW TODAY (by no mistake) for good social development of Singapore (and without further mistake), or will just get to see same old today?
TOC 15 Aug 2010: Offer volunteers a decent meal, at least
Most volunteers will be mentally prepared to finish undertaken task for certain period of time, and will not expect anything extraordinary in return.
Presence of volunteer not only means assigned task being done, but more importantly give big moral support to other party involved.
True wisdom is no volunteer will feel sorrow or regret for little sacrifice to see small things go on smoothly.
TR 1 Apr 2010: 人工草皮 （Astroturfing）
执政党及主流媒体只有自创假情绪的本领，除了执政党、人协和新公民以外，其愚蠢政策再也无法激起国人的情绪。
随着政府对国人失去兴趣，新一代国人唯一能靠新媒体来互相支持和勉励，以真挚心寻回国家更好的未来。
TR 1 Apr 2010: April’s Fool joke: Astroturfing by the PAP
What PAP/ MSM capable of is just self-create insider excitement among PAP/ PA member/ new citizens, and can never make any more public excitement among Singaporeans with their foolish policy/ practice.
With government losing interest in citizens, new generation of Singaporeans can only look out for one another in new media, so that one day can bring back future of Singapore with true feeling towards country.
TR 26 Feb 2010: 给吕德耀部长的一封公开信
新加坡的所谓主流媒体及新媒体大多偏向讨好政府，很多聪明读者已不难判断其真实性或误导性，且也可通过其他新媒体 (如 Google 网页) 得知比较合理及平衡的观点。
虽然近期可在主流媒体看到小小评论和改变，但还欠政府真正支持的态度及新闻业者专业正直的大改进，以促进国家的社会发展及满足众人期待已久的好媒体。
