Germany to Censor It’s Internet Access?
by Davin on Jun.16, 2009, under Technology, The Web
Germany is on the verge of possibly censoring it’s internet access for all german citizens this coming week. This is a touchy slope as the main intent of the movement is to block out access to child pornography from reaching the hard drives inside Germany, witch is a worthy cause to get behind, but the problem I have with censoring the web is that the unavoidable bottom line is that censoring the only free publishing medium that the public can use is a dangerous thing and the only way to really avoid the risk of having the line of ‘what can be forcefully censored’ being pushed further into people freedoms of expression and free speech is to not censor at all.
This is a sticky situation. But I’m against it.
