Putfile Says Goodbye To Singapore
At dawn on December 2nd 2005, Singapore hanged a citizen of
Australia, despite a plea for clemency from the United Nations.
Whilst Putfile is not a human rights campaigning organization, we
believe that if a country must have the death penalty, there is no
need for it be barbaric. It is enough of a punishment, and a
deterrent, to take someone's life in a painless manner, without
having to be barbaric about it. Putfile prefers to not continue to
provide our free uploading service to a country that executes
prisoners by hanging, a method of execution which can take up to
six minutes to painfully execute the victim.
For this reason, we are at this time terminating all service to
users from Singapore. We shall be happy to restore service
following any positive move from the government of Singapore
towards abolition of hanging as an execution method.
Goodbye Singapore,
Putfile.
