    He has been "pardoned". Pardoned



    What was his crime... Saving them from the Nazis? Imho he should have been exonerated. This is the very very minimum they should do.

    And at the same time the British government is blocking access to LGBT websites using the very computers Turing advanced so far. :/

    100 % agree, his conviction should have been quashed years ago (and those of all the others convicted of the heinous :rolleyes: "crime" of being gay).
