[b]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.

CHAO CHEE BYE. We don't hang drug addicts. We send them into rehab. It's the drug traffickers we hang.
It singles out drug addicts, many of whom are hanged after being found in possession of relatively small quantities of drugs.
It is often addicts and minor dealers who are hanged rather than those behind the trafficking, it says.
Seriously those nuts don't know that 1 drug trafficker could be trafficking enough drugs to kill 100, maybe even a 1000. I'd rather kill one man to save a 100.
