Wikipedia editing blocked – an example of why internet censorship is stupid
A letter to Senator Stephen Conroy, Minister for censoring Broadband, Communications and the Digital Economy
Is the minister aware of the censorship and inadvertantly restrictive effect of the British model so called “Clean Feed” earlier this week?
95% of British internet users were prevented from excercising free speach in editing Wikipedia because of one organisations decision that an image (a CD cover which incidently is available on other sites such as Amazon and can be purchased) was inappropriate.
