Serious Jiuhu Muslims Launch Halal Internet Browser! Will Boss Sam Launch A Halal Sammyboy Forum To Capture The Muslim Market?

[JohnTan]

INTERNATIONAL – A Malaysian startup is betting that there’s plenty of pent-up demand for a new browser that’s compliant with Islamic values, at a time of mounting concerns over privacy, bias and online abuse over the internet.

SalamWeb, a mobile and desktop browser, is designed to deliver a Muslim-friendly web experience. The app, which includes messaging, news and other features, has users from mainly Malaysia and Indonesia, according to Hasni Zarina Mohamed Khan, managing director at Salam Web Technologies MY Sdn.

Her goal is to eventually capture 10 percent of the 1.8 billion global Muslim population. She pointed to some of challenges facing the web, as the world’s largest technology companies from Google to Facebook face criticism for doing too little to address harmful content and false information.

Human rights group Amnesty International looked at abusive interactions and concluded that Twitter is a “toxic place for women.”

“We want to make the internet a better place,” Hasni Zarina said. “We know the internet has the good and the bad, so SalamWeb offers you a tool to create this window that lets you go to the internet to see the good.”

SalamWeb relies on community-vetted content filters that mark web pages as appropriate, neutral or inappropriate, while warning users when they approach sites with gambling or pornography. It also has Muslim-specific functions, such as prayer times and an indicator for Qibla, or the direction that a Muslim must face when praying.

The products are certified compliant by the independent Amanie Shariah Supervisory Board, and is built on the open-source Chromium software that’s the basis of Google Chrome web browser.

Shariah law prohibits activities considered unethical, such as gambling, prostitution and alcohol- and pork-related businesses, as well as interest-based financial products.

“We’re promoting universal values — although SalamWeb is targeted to Muslims, it can be used by anyone,” Hasni Zarina said. “The internet can be a harmful place. It’s obvious that we need an alternative.”

A new browser that’s compliant with Islamic values, at a time of mounting concerns over privacy, bias and online abuse over the internet. anti-free speech, censor-happy, tracks 'Islamophobes' and passive-aggressively enforces Sharia-style anti-blasphemy laws.

The current sammboy forum is haram because it firmly endorses prostitution and islamophobia.

The wretched Boss Sam is also clearly on the side of the islamophobic Burmese who carried out genocide against the peaceful Rohingya.

Dumbfuck. Most of these holier than thou Islamites quietly surf porn after sembahyang. Confirm no business.

Will halal brothels n the alternative pharmaceutical industry advertise in this halal website? Wat about halal dating sites?, 9 yo gals can post profiles too. Other sites must be about 18yo

If you go to any supermarket in Malaysia, your canned luncheon meat and beer/wine etc are all located in a 'Tidak halal' section or shelf, far away from the main aisles.

Even the Daiso outlets in Malaysia have a non-halal section, consisting of mostly snacks and cooking ingredients.

They launched a Halal airline, Rayani Air, and it didn't survive very long.

Mudlands muslims have bochap halal lah just like Arabs don't care about halal when they are in the West.

If internet is such a haram...then just ban all Muslims from accessing it.

They consume it every second, and yet they can't do anything about it!

Browser-browser Cina are usually forked versions of Chromium (which Chrome is based on), not interested in imparting any 'values'.

Anyway, an all-in-one app isn't very popular these days.
