The CE - No To EU Internet Censorship
Posted: 02nd Jun, 2003 By: MarkJ
The Council of Europe (CE) has called on European member states to promote Internet access and prevent ISPs from being held responsible for material transmitted over their servers without their knowledge!:
In a "Declaration on Freedom of Communication on the Internet," the grouping's Council of ministers laid down seven principles aimed at guaranteeing the right to free information, as enshrined in Article 10 of the European Convention on Human Rights.
-- To refrain from using general blocking or filtering techniques to deny information access to the public, although filters aimed at barring vulnerable groups such as children from certain content were acceptable.
-- Ensure limited liability for service providers, who should not be obliged to monitor all content flowing through their servers.
