Ross Anderson of the University of Cambridge has posted an interesting piece on recent developments in tech policy in the UK and US, which was commissioned by the IEEE but later killed after Anderson refused to allow edits that he claims would have introduced "material inaccuracies." The piece opens with an Esther Dyson quote: "It's foolish to expect higher standards on the Internet than we accept in 'real life'." Anderson says that the reasoning has been turned around by legislators, who are now arguing that "they have to restrict traditional offline freedoms in order to enable the regulation of cyberspace." Hmm, the need for tighter control of the Net justifies tighter control in "real life," huh? Read the full article.
