Your rant about non-Christians condoning honour killings I'll just leave where it is.
Where do you think morals were originally derived from?
They came about because they're good survival strategies - read The Selfish Gene.
And what belief system do you think binds these morals to the greater society?
I don't need to believe there is an invisible sky being to help my neighbour prune her hedges. A belief system is not required for someone to be part of a community. Society works not because everyone has the same beliefs, but because within all the differences between people there are commonalities, and helping others makes a society better.
For example, "love your neighbor as yourself" is universally understood to be a true religious principle - in that it goes well with you if you consider other people and look out for their interests as much as you would your own.
No, that's a good moral principle. All the religious parts of religion are bollocks.
It only apples to ISP's with over 400000 customers
And how long will that last?
Just change to one of the many other ISP's out there
Yes - just change to another, more expensive, ISP because a law is being introduced that makes your current ISP worse for no good technical reason.
When a bad law is introduced the correct response is to fight it, not to skirt around it. If you do that you are willingly giving up your rights. We are racing towards only having access to a subset of the internet in the UK and the lack of dissent is staggering.
Make sure your code does nothing gracefully.
