(Josh Zecher) Censorship in China. Is this news?
Should anyone be surprised that governments are censoring content on the Internet the same exact way that they have been "filtering" information in newspapers, radio and television for decades?
The past week's developments show that despite all of its "tubes," the Internet is a high tech delivery vehicle of content that can be controlled and used for either building freedoms or squashing them.
Today, Secretary of State Hillary Clinton outlined her five key freedoms for the Internet Age which include:
- Freedom of speech and worship online
- Freedom to connect to the Internet anywhere
- Freedom from cyber attacks
These sound awfully familiar to the same freedoms outlined more than 200 years ago by our nation's forefathers.
Human's technological brilliance may prosper and flourish but our foundational challenges remain the same.
I haven't checked in here for a while because I thought it was getting boring, but the last few posts are good quality so I guess I will add you back to my daily bloglist. You deserve it friend :)
