"Hangout On Air" to discuss new UK Internet censorship plans http://j.mp/13401RC (This event on Google+ Events) This Hangout On Air is scheduled to discuss British Prime Minister David Cameron's announced plans to impose a vast new government Internet content control and censorship regime across Great Britain, with the closest parallel in key respects being the censorship system currently employed in China. Issues of interest include ostensible opt-in/opt-out provisions; criminalization of additional content categories; calls for search engine keyword censorship, page interception, plus possible reporting; and more. What sort of precedent does this set for other nations? // The HOA is currently scheduled for Tuesday 23 July at 1300 PDT (2100 BST). This HOA is subject to scheduling changes or cancellation as circumstances require.
