Thats by far no solution but a really weak comment on the movement that gets bigger and bigger over time. We still need your help. From everywhere! We believe in free speech and not censored content.

Today is Germany, who can assure that tomorrow it won’t be YOU!

Spread the image! Spread the message! Even if you are not affected at all (up to now)!

Upload this Image to your account! So geht es nicht!

Today the first (!) ever response from flickr was read about the situations.

Thats by far no solution but a really weak comment on the movement that gets bigger and bigger over time. After 28 hours of SILENCE, no explanation for what is happening has been given!

We still need your help. From everywhere! we believe in free speech and not censored content.

Have a great day, take care!

Let’s hope, everything will be back to normal soon!

English:

Freedom of speech and freedom of the press are fundamental human rights, and free use of the

Internet is protected in Article 19 of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights, which guarantees freedom to

“receive and impart information and ideas through any media regardless of frontiers”

But that isn’t so for everybody at Flickr!

If your Yahoo! ID is based in Singapore, Germany, Hong Kong or Korea, you will only be able to view safe content based on your local Terms of Service, and therefore won’t be able to turn off SafeSearch.

In other words, german users can’t access photos on flickr that are not flaged “safe” … only flowers and landscapes for the germans …

We won’t let this happen! Copy and upload this picture to your account – show flickr who we are.

Portugues:

Se a tua conta yahoo é de Singapura, Hong Kong, Koreia e Alemanha, o teu acesso está condicionado a uma censura imposta, que não escolheste quando te inscreveste neste serviço! Só erás acesso a fotos censuradas. Todas as outras nao serao acessiveis , apenas flores abelhas e anjinhos.. A tua LIBERDADE de escolha no que QUERES VER é automaticamente retirado. <b>O DIREITO à LIBERDADE de expressão e Impresa Livre é um DIREITO HUMANO FUNDAMENTAL protegido pelo ARTIGO 19 DA DECLARAÇÃO UNIVERSAL DOS DIREITOS HUMANOS. </b> bem-vindos a mais um absurdo Flickr..kkkkkkk

Junte-se a nos, proteste..porque o proximo pode ser vc, seu pais, sua conta!

Deutsch:

flickr sperrt uns aus! Und auch dich!

Seit gestern werden für deutsche Nutzer keine Bilder mehr angezeigt, die als ‘moderate’ oder ‘restricted’ markiert sind! Es gibt keine Moeglichkeit das umzustellen – das ist eine grobe Unverschämtheit und Frechheit von flickr!

Deswegen treten wir gemeinsam in Aktion und zeigen allen, das uns das nicht gefällt was flickr mit uns macht! Füge das Bild zu deinen Favoriten hinzu und poste es!

Espanol:

No sé cuando, pero muy recientemente a las cuentas de Alemania, Hong Kong, Corea y Singapur les han prohibido ver las fotos que están en el Safe Search, las mismas en las que a nosotros nos dan la opcíón de ver o no ver. A ellos simplemente se lo prohiben. Chale no?

Francais:

Si votre compte Yahoo! est basé à Singapour, à Hong Kong, en Corée ou en Allemagne, vous ne pourrez voir que les photos qui n’ont pas été marquées comme ayant un contenu qui peut choquer. Toutes les autres ne vous seront pas accessibles. Vous serez donc condamnés à ne voir que des paysages et des fleurs. Il ne faut pas laisser faire ça. Envoyez cette photo sur votre compte pour montrer à Flickr que nous savons nous mobiliser contre la censure !

Italiano:

Se il tuo ID yahoo è localizzato a Singapore, in Germania oppure ad Hong Kong o in Korea potrai vedere solo foto dal contenuto che è in accordo con il locale accordo dei termini di servizio per cui gli utenti flickr di quelle nazioni non potranno cambiare da SafeSearch on in SafeSearch off.

In altri termini, ciò significa che gli utenti tedeschi e delle altre nazioni citate non potranno accedere a foto su flickr che non siano flaggate “safe”

e quindi solo fiori e paesaggi per i tedeschi.

Copia e carica nel tuo stream quest’ immagine sul tuo account – mostra a flickr chi siamo!

Internet censorship is control or suppression of the publishing or accessing of information on the Internet. The legal issues are similar to offline censorship.

The users make you! - don’t forget that flickr!
