I read that as 'Dogging in Dubai' when I first saw it....

You would do you perverted old dog.

Re: Blogging in Dubai.....
 

Wouldn't try that one though :D

It says forums are monitored, are we? :blink:

Re: Blogging in Dubai.....
 

ask the mods....

auto?

Re: Blogging in Dubai.....
 

i would imagine all sites are monitored to a greater or lesser degree.

i'm not sure where mods stand here - i have no financial interest in BE. The site is not based in UAE. There are many post that can be made either in this section, but in other forums too...

each poster is actually liable for there own comments too.

i would expect after so many years with no issues BE is fine in the eyes of the UAE - keeps us all in one place and relatively out of trouble...

Can you imagine an unmoderated forum based in UAE - I'd be scared....

My blogs were more of a worry for me personally... but i don't sail too close to anything...

Re: Blogging in Dubai.....
 

Does that mean britishexpats.com would give out peoples' real names (not monikers) to any regulatory authority requesting such information ? :confused:

Re: Blogging in Dubai.....
 

I had my own forum and I would never have given that information out unless of course there was a court order to do so, but by then I would imagine the person would have deleted their account.

Re: Blogging in Dubai.....
 

i was talking in general on the net - not specific to BE.

Re: Blogging in Dubai.....
 

well facebook have said if the police want any info they will let them have access to facebook, and skype have encryped their phone calls and refuse to let the police de-encrypt them to listen in.

Re: Blogging in Dubai.....
 

BE couldn't give out people's real names as we don't ask posters for proof of identity when they sign up. Therefore how do we know what are people's real names and what aren't?

Re: Blogging in Dubai.....
 

so you didn't believe it when I registered with [email protected]!

Re: Blogging in Dubai.....
 

through peoples IP addresses?

Re: Blogging in Dubai.....
 

some tits on you pet :)

Re: Blogging in Dubai.....
 

They can only give out the IP adress, as soon as someone is on a proxy/VPN or posts from out of the country, there's nothing they can do.

Don't know the laws in the UAE though, I know there are some court cases over here because of ISP's not giving out personal information to the government, due to privacy laws.
