Untraceable
So I went and saw this flick last night. It was pretty good. It’s also a pretty good commentary about what the Internet is. For everything good the Internet provides us, there are just as many nefarious people doing their own perverse things on the web. Either way, while I respect Law Enforcement to go after the child predators (and encourage them as well), I don’t necessarily think any restrictions should be placed on the net as a whole.
I wouldn’t agree with several countries coming together to restrict the net. I also vehemently disagree with nations such as China restricting access to the web to their citizens. Accessing information and being able to voice an opinion are fundamental human rights that all humans should have.
I think it would be a worthwhile goal for a country such as the United States to pressure nations like China into allowing their citizens free access on the web. These people should be allowed to speak out against their communist government whether or not the government wants for it to happen.
If the people of China were allowed to speak out against their communist government, then the government would be a democracy. We live in a democracy so as citizens of the U.S. we have free access on the web. But than again Word press does not allow you to put adsense on your blog.
“Accessing information and being able to voice an opinion are fundamental human rights that all humans should have.” This is what is called a Democracy.(U.S.A.)
“China restricting access to the web to their citizens.” This is called Communism . (China)
I fully understand the difference between communism and democracy. The point is democratic/free nations should endeavor to make it a goal to give all people these rights.
