Back in the day they used to say "Blood makes the grass grow. Kill! Kill! Kill!"
I guess we should change that to "Litigation makes the kimchi grow. Sue! Sue! Sue!" |

You are way off the mark. Who mentioned anything about a law to supress internet defamation? The op-ed piece you linked to has nothing to do with the fact that Koreans have to submit their national id number to purchase a lamp or book online. This policy ( I'm not sure if its a national law) was in place well before president Lee came to power. |

If you had actually read about it, you would have realized that one of the measures of this cyber defamation law was to require Koreans to provide their ID number when logging on..which was why it was so controversial in the first place. |

I read the piece, and as usual for Korean English newspapers it was a jumbled mess that said nothing about people being upset about needing to use their national id number to do things online. Regardless of what this law says, Koreans have had to use their id numbers online for years- long before LMB came to office. Nobody seemed to care about privacy then and still dont seem to care. Have you ever heard the questions Koreans are asked at job interviews? |

In the very first sentence it said that this law "sparked controversy".
So according to you that means people weren't upset? |

You state that Koreans don't care about privacy.
Ever been in a Korean bar? |
