Special services of Kyrgyzstan announced the introduction of censorship on the Internet

The day before, on April 16, at a meeting in the Kyrgyz parliament, the head of the intelligence service Shamil Atakhanov publicly announced that he intends to censor the Internet, in particular, to monitor the content of Kyrgyz sites. According to the chairman of the State National Security Committee of KR they have already signed several contracts with firms that specialize in search engine software. Within 3-4 months Kirnete, in fact, the direct censorship will be introduced.

In the future cooperation with the National Security Committee programmers allow security officers to track information content of any website. The committee will pay special attention to local news agencies, which, according to their data, periodically publishes articles on banned topics about nationalism, ethnic and religious conflicts, and so on. However Atakhanov forgot to mention one more component - the local newspapers, which by their content, often times "do their job better" than ordinary Kyrgyz journalists, including Russian, but for their chauvinistic remarks were not punished, and vice versa - is praised and popularized.

The initiative caused controversial reaction in the community, but journalists have embraced information Atakhanova negatively, because for them this is a violation of the principles of freedom of speech and the lack of legislative framework in Kyrgyzstan for censoring the Internet space.

- This is a private affair of the State Committee of National Security - said political analyst, journalist and senior fellow at the Institute of Oriental Studies, Russian Academy of Sciences, Alexander Knyazev.

Somewhat similar views expressed Portal News - Asia and the General Director of "Channel Five" Eugene Berdnikov.

- I can not say that I completely "over", - said the journalist. - But if the National Security Committee will publish and agree with the public criteria of what content is correct and what is not, and will strictly adhere to these criteria, the idea has a right to exist. The problem is that nobody ever sees these criteria. National Security Committee, as always, will refer to the privacy and so on. And as a result any information published on this site may be "inappropriate content". Moreover, with the rise of Internet technology, where is the guarantee that the next step will not control user utterances in social networks?

- To be honest, this decision can be treated in two ways - said journalist Dmitry Orlov, the head of the Analytical Center "Strategy for the East-West". - You can monitor Internet content under the pretext of combating terrorism, for extremist statements, and other similar things. And it is possible under the same pretext to take measures against undesirable regime people.

In the United States after September 11, Americans also began to actively pursue online monitoring. And there with human rights defenders, journalists walk angry.

Recall that, by Kyrgyz law Internet resources are not the media, and therefore can not fall under the provisions of the law "On Mass Media", which provides for restrictions on the content of articles, including religious and nationalistic themes.

Netherlands Pirate Party started a lawsuit against the anti-piracy organization

Pirates of the Netherlands anti-piracy organization called such action “a violation of human rights.

Pirate Party of the Netherlands started a lawsuit against the anti-piracy organization BREIN to try to repeal the court's decision, according to which the parties must disable the proxy server that provides users with access to file sharing service The Pirate Bay. It is reported by TorrentFreak.

Pirate Party accuses BREIN in the "legal harassment" and violation of human rights. Pirates of the Netherlands require that access to The Pirate Bay has been opened.

It should be noted that the work of the proxy server was started after this January by the court disabled users access to The Pirate Bay.

After that, the site of the Netherlands Pirate Party published a list of services that let subscribers use the XS4ALL and Ziggo The Pirate Bay. On April 15 BREIN, in turn, required to remove the link from the site. As a result, the Dutch pirates sued the organization.

Online Censorship Bills

Two bills pave their way through the congress in an attempt to put down on-line piracy and file-sharing.

The Stop Online Piracy Act is the most famous in the House. His counterpart in the senate is PLto clamp down or in other words Protect IP Act. These bills are controversial, there is a good reason of it.

Big tech companies oppose the bills. Many of them will soon has something to do with it. Major online giant webhosting like GoDaddy.com has given its own lesson after announcing the support for SOPA. This bill is being regarded by critics as effective web censor.

Support for the bill provided by GoDaddy leads to the Reddit users who came with threats for pulling domains from the web host, activeness .

The on-line grassroots can’t be underestimated. Hacker ingenuity, simple boycotts aginst things that happen in a real time, censorship bills are similar to the SOPA and are not able to stop it.

GoDaddy has overcome this protest barrier, customer threatening in taking their money. Good for them, there is plenty of other good reasons not to give the money.

Hackers and internet junkies can find some ways for ceasing corporations from supporting such bills and giving a pressure on a few officials, it makes necessary a great number of Americans to have more knowledge of the bills.

Reddit is a good example of a site that has become far more than simply a social network or a link-sharing utility, it has grown into a real online service.

There is a belief in a human ingenuity and the power of innovation. Modern technology makes it able for tyrants, bureaucrats to clamp down our privacy, freedom. Security and privacy balance and the difference between them is not a black and white thing, it is not a controversy for solving.

Internet must be under the control

There was a day in November branded as “American Censorship Day” , it is a day of opposing current legislation in Senate and the House of Representatives which is supposed to represent Internet control.

HR 3261 content more known as Stop online Piracy Act (SOPA) aims to “eliminating the financial incentive of stealing mental property on-line” , it makes possible to cease advertisers from providing money to some domain names hosting illegal material according to copyright laws.

The bill also states that if a site does not provide any attempts for taking down infringing materials, Internet service such as time warner or AT&T is able to give blocking for some users from visiting websites.

There is no much attention paid for the bill that blurs the line between allowing censorship and protecting mental property. It is because the bill does not distinguish how a domain claims responsibility for the information that it is being posted by own users.

The bill also does not take any mention to the content information that is not so expressive.

In other words the legislation does not target websites specifically.

The attempt on behalf of the government regulates all that is viewed by American citizens on the Internet.

According to the possibilities of the House of Representatives Matthew Jarvis, a CSUF political science professor draws up the bill without intending to pass it. Jarvis cited an attempt for reinstating military draft in 2004. The bill did not pass, it has been taken to make a statement.

Most of Congress members did not approve it for taking a stand, because the bill may fall along the same lines।

One more thing is to be added HR 3261 has some committee hearings that does not make possible to set the date for voting according the bill.

All this is recent proposal of the government in the frames of taxing and censorship control regulations in the Internet.

Now it is obvious HR 3261 is simply a proposal that is not voted on. There can be a debate concerned with cons and pros of the web. That is why HR 3261 should be debated or even protested.

I oppose the web is being controlled and regulated. The Internet should be overly regulated, Internet relates the business being effected from overtaxation. Internet service may sometimes effect the economy.
