apparently watching a youtube video will get you 15 years now, what counts as far right propoganda? watching a mass immigration video? anything that is critical of the government?
will we get a pass like the people who stab their boyfriends in the leg?
seems rudd is getting plenty of abuse for the idea even within her own party, so hopefully they have a clear definition by the time they put some bill together.
It's a bit like blaming Robert Dyas for selling kitchen knives.
even the effort to come up with the policy, let alone the hours and hours wasted preparing and passing the bill.
anyone who wishes to browse the web anonymously knows exactly how to do it.
15 years for Viewing Extremist Videos ,There are Literally thousands of Extremist's on the Police/security forces RADAR ,Nothing is Done ,they are hardly going to start locking People up for watching Videos ,well certainly not Islamic Jihadi Types Could you Imagine the Uproar from the Luvvies
Not just made up stuff, like the Mail, but very silly as well.
I predict that no-one will ever get 15 years for looking at the internet.
I tried googling it and all I got was other sources to this same story.

People who repeatedly view terrorist content online will face up to 15 years in prison, the home secretary has told the Conservative Party conference.
Amber Rudd set out her intention to change the law to increase the maximum penalty from 10 years.
The offence of possessing information likely to be useful to a terrorist will also apply to material viewed repeatedly or streamed online.
Currently it applies only to material that is downloaded and stored.
An example cited was of a male who streamed bomb-making videos on YouTube but could not be charged with a terror offence because he had not saved them.
The changes to Section 58 of the Terrorism Act 2000 will be designed to safeguard those who click on a link by mistake, or who could argue that they did so out of curiosity rather than with criminal intent.
What's the point if they are uploading it from somewhere in a basement in Syria?
The naivety of people who watch kiddy porn then are shocked when the police turn up at there door summed up in one sentence.
Crikey - I've typed in ISIRIS before now! 15 years to access a horse racing tipping service. I better go into hiding!!
Mind you, anyone who has used the ISIRIS 'service' deserves to get a 15 years jail sentence in my view!
