To make matters worse, the new ruling was passed without any form of debate or approval by the Parliament of Singapore.</p><p>To protest against the new licensing scheme, we are blacking out our site on June 6 from 0000 hrs to 2359 hrs. <a href="https://www.facebook.com/FreeMyInternet">Find out more about the protest movement here</a>.</p><p style="text-align: right;">Lee Wei Meng<br/>Executive Editor, No Game No Talk</p></div></div>
