Peacefire is initiated in US in the year of 1996 particularly to represent the interests of people under 18 in preserving their First Amendment rights as internet users. Peacefire helps out users to disable blocked software from the computer.
Wonder how it works? =)
The two common ways used to disable the website/software are by using joining in the website Stuppidcensorship.com. But be aware that if you browse through this website you can be tracked and most popular censorware programs like Cyber patrol and CYBERsitter which are totally against the Peacefire.org software already have Stupidcensorship.com in their blocked list. Apart from that, users who can’t access to that website can install Circumventor to unblock certain websites.

Although, Peacefire.org stands out to protect First Amendment rights yet it happens to be against the use of online censorship. Censorware companies have been anti-acceptant of Peacefire.org since it’s against the online censorship. Perhaps this method is not recommended to be used in Malaysia since we do not practice the First Amendment rights over here.
Be a safe user and do not involve in dilemma where you can be tracked down. So, what do you think about Peacefire? Do you think it’s suitable to practice this method or is it always the best to block users from retrieving the blocked websites since it can be injuries if they got involved in the wrong internet activities? Do let us know about your opinion.
Blogging on online censorship issues helped me to learn so many advantages and disadvantages of it towards the nation and up to an individual. I’ve learnt the importance of not just online censorship but also online issues as of e-learning, piracy, legal issues, advertising, dating, gambling, gaming, shopping and social networking issues. This experience has been a very interesting learning process. All the while, for me internet was just checking mails, chatting, playing games and being totally engaged with Facebook and Friendster. But now I have learnt how depth internet can go to and I've learnt not to misuse the internet and I know yet all this is still a small portion of the whole internet world. I’m all set to learn more in upcoming time, I hope so are you… =)....Have a great day buddies, it was great experience being blogging with you all.
