Anti-Internet censorship conference is censored
Found on The Inquirer on Sunday, 15 November 2009
As part of the conference an anti-Internet censorship group was disrupted by a gang of UN officials who demanded removal of a poster that mentioned Internet firewalls in China.
The poster was thrown on the floor and protesters were told to remove it because of the reference to China and Tibet. They refused, so security guards came and removed it.
Deibert has filed a complaint against the censorship of the event and sent it to the United Nations Human Rights Commission.
Freedom of speech, wasn't there something like that? But when every nation secretly drools over total Internet control and censorship, I guess protecting those who already have it in place (or at least try to) is just fine from their point of view.
