"As governments try to impose their rule on the Internet, digital rights activist strive to keep Internet governance open, inclusive and controlled by the many. In a four-part series, CI’s Digital Rights Senior Policy Officer Jeremy Malcolm looks at the issues.
In the wake of last year's defeat of the controversial ACTA (Anti-Counterfeiting Trade Agreement) treaty in Europe and of the SOPA (Stop Online Piracy Act) and PIPA (Protect IP Act) bills in the United States, both of which called on intermediaries to police consumers' use of the Internet, digital rights activists in the West have naturally gained a heightened sensitivity to their governments intruding on Internet freedoms." info@als-alexander.orgor interalex1@yahoo.com
