Satmar's Williamsburg Faction Orders All Hasidim To Agree To Censorship Requirements Ordered By Its Leader; Those Who Do Not Comply Will Be Expelled

The Williamsburg Satmar Rebbe Rabbi Zalman Leib Teitelbaum has ordered immediate and complete compliance with new Internet and cellphone bans. Those hasidim who do not comply will be excommunicated from Satmar and their children will be expelled from Satmar schools.

The Williamsburg Satmar Rebbe Rabbi Zalman Leib Teitelbaum

The source who gave me the forms posted below summarized the edict this way:

• Hasidim must sign a form that promises that they will have no Internet access at home.

• Hasidim who must have Internet access for their jobs can only use the specific filtered Internet access Satmar itself approves. (This gives Satmar complete access to every hasid's Internet logs and a list of every website a hasid visits.)

• Hasidim must list the cellphone numbers of every member of their family including children, and all cellphones must be brought to a special committee to verify that they have no Internet capabilities.

• Any hasid who does not fully comply with all the demands set out in this form will no longer be considered a member of the Satmar community and their children will not be allowed to study in Satmar schools or attend Satmar summer camps.

++++ Any hasid who does not fully comply with all the demands set out in this form will no longer be considered a member of the Satmar community and their children will not be allowed to study in Satmar schools or attend Satmar summer camps.++++

That's a good thing. The kids can then go to proper schools. The father might even want to find a job.

Their last, desperate attempts to hang onto a world they can no longer control. And one that goes against Torah and basic civil decency as well.

[Shloimy Handyman]

The idea, I think, is to keep people stupid and uninformed and incapable of making an independent decision.

[yehudis]

It is unbelievable that this can go on in the USA in this day and age. I guess there is always the public library. One of these days maybe they will go too far and their craziness will backfire.

[Yankel]

Meshimer filter is not just a regular Internet filter it requires installation of a custom certificate so it can have visibility to all private and secure activity.

By filtering private and secure activity they have full visibility to all secure transactions including your banking, passwords or other online transactions, they will know exactly how many bank accounts and money is available to their members see all email conversations and so on.

In America we call this a breach of privacy in simple terms this product is illegal.

This product is illegal and disgusting, they do not disclose their visibility, you are vulnerable to hacking and other dangerous aspects of the Internet.

They block everything including modifying images with skin color it's annoying, It works like a slow-moving truck, if you don't believe me try it yourself.

Time will tell, I wish them all good luck, they will be one day on the news and it's going to be disgusting like anything you had seen.

THis is very good news. I think many will agree to be expelled. Those who can afford to relocate themselves.

DOes this apply only to Willysburg tho?

Or maybe the NY area.

[Yankel]

The Satmar Rebbe said at the Williamsburg Asifa anyone not using the meshimer filter is called evil, so to all Jews who installed filters and feel accomplished you should know if you do not replace it with the illegal meshimer filter you are called evil, it just doesn't get crazier than this.

If the product would've been good at least you are enforcing something decent but the reality is the opposite let me say it in simple words its the worst filtering product out there don't take me on my words try it yourself I don't know how they are not embarrassed for themselves and now enforcing this slow nonsense idiotic stupid filter product called meshimer.

Satmar members are you really so crazy?

"• Any hasid who does not fully comply with all the demands set out in this form will no longer be considered a member of the Satmar community and their children will not be allowed to study in Satmar schools or attend Satmar summer camps."

Well this is a G-d send all in itself.

"Their last, desperate attempts to hang onto a world they can no longer control. And one that goes against Torah and basic civil decency ."

David:

Spot on !

Reading regularly about the activities of these Hasidim is a little like watching a train wreck in slow motion.

[Manuel Ferrara]

It is desperate measure and useless one. The Chassidim who use the Internet will get one cheap one which they will submit for approval and another one that they will use daily.

I have big family in Lakewood , they have Internet and big TV and they signed forms saying they do not have.

When you start lying to the government you end up lying to your rabbis.

That's a good thing. The kids can then go to proper schools. The father might even want to find a job.

David, that ALONE was worth the price of admission!

[Peanut Cavalry]

Oh, dear. Somebody in Satmarville is scared as they are tightening the reins. Reminds one of a cult, an abusive husband, or China. Can't have people running about getting information they need now can we?

"A couple weeks later, I found myself among 60,000 ultra-Orthodox Jews, pouring into New York's Citi Field to learn from *the world's most respected rabbis* about the dangers of the internet."

Oh, dear. Someone's been selling this young man a bill of goods.

[MonseyLuke]

LOL. If the community reaction is anything like the internet rally in Rockland, Willi must be awash in tweets.

Luke.

[WoolSilkCotton; I must be seen to be believed]

Jeff, towards the end of the article, when he went back to using the internet, he realized he was the same person with the same habits, some good and some bad, whether he used the Internet or not.

Too bad the frumma can't grasp that conclusion.

I don't know what everyone's problem is its like a club .they have their rules if you don't like them don't join .
If they add new rules after you join and you don't like them leave.
As long as all their chmres are for their members and they don't try to force it on anyone else it's no ones business
Printing these stories just shows the anti charade bias that is very common on this blog

[Yankel]

Nussi, I agree if you don't like their rules don't join but once you joined and they change rules it's not so simple to leave you know it very well and that's what is upsetting people.

It's like you invested in a rental and you are happy then comes your landlord with new regulations, would you just leave?

And yes we are all anti extremism, stupidity, craziness and we live in the United States we have freedom of speech.

[Account Deleted]

Nussi: A few questions...

1. Are Charedim a club or do they define themselves as something more along the lines of the only and true keepers of the Faith? Not exactly as optional a choice in that light, to join or leave.

2. If they are more than a club, and they compel conformity through threats of punishment in this life and the next, are they accountable for failures that result from policies enacted?

3. Is it possible for an entire population to live as ethical and law abiding members of the host Country without the use of the internet to make a living? Will the internet become more or less of a required tool for business in the future? Is the demonizing of a tool that can be used for good and bad even reasonable?

4. Do policies enacted by the Rabbis which compel followers, out of desperation to earn a living, to violate Torah and Civil law indicate the the leadership is flawed and in need of remediation?

5. If the Rabbis start telling their communities to eat non-kosher food, would their qualifications for leadership be questioned? If they inhibit the ability to make a honest living, and force members to turn to lives of white collar crime to survive, are they executing their mandate?

Bias is not the issue.

Why not try out the Amish approach and just eliminate electricity from your life?

Keyscrambler may be the answer.

This satmar rebbe and his a hole brother are scum of the earth. I wish them both the worst. I hope the rate of ex Chassidim who leave the fold increases. They are a mafia that is a pathetic joke.

[jancsibacsi]

Nussi --The chassidim are a very very repugnant bunch of immature dictators they have no shame they bring only shame on the decent law abiding jews,they were good 200 years ago in the forests of europe here in a big city they are obsolete they serve no purpose other then bring chillel hashem on all of the good yiddin,they protect ,olesters and thiefs you can be more antisocial then that get it through youre think head they are no good for the yiddin overall.

[Yankel]

This is becoming like anything else.

In order to stop and disable the Meshimer filter, Venishmartem VCF Pro filter or any other Livigent filter open the command prompt and enter the following command

sc stop watchdogic

To reactivate the filter restart the computer

To disable the filter completely for even after a reboot, after stopping the filter with the command line stop the following services

DispatcherIC
ICHFilter
MainIC
WatchdogIC

To reenable the filter after disabling those 4 services start back those 4 services and restart the computer.

Is this the filter we call impossible to bypass.
