[News] War on the Internet Hit by Backlash

Internet Group Demands End to Government P2P Propaganda

,----[ Quote ]
| In November, the Spanish government launched a media 
| campaign which heavily criticized file-sharers. Now, 
| Spain’s Association of Internet Users has issued a 
| complaint, claiming the content “recklessly offers 
| information that lacks all legal basis, with the exclusive 
| aim of re-educating public opinion.” Sounds familiar.

Dear Mr Burnham....

| This would help not only in the current case, but generally 
| when the UK government is grappling with the intersection 
| of policy with technology. Sadly, previous decisions 
| involving computers, the Internet and related areas have 
| frequently ignored salient facts that have subsequently 
| vitiated the proposed schemes.     
| 
| In summary, please don't even think about implementing 
| clumsy classification schemes until more general structures 
| are in place to help arrive, collaboratively, at ones that 
| will work better.
