Wired
is reporting that Rep. Chris Cox (R-CA) introduced a bill (H.R.5524) to establish
the Office of Global Internet Freedom bill yesterday. The main aim of the
bill is to "foster development of censorship-busting technology for users"
in countries like China and Saudi Arabia. The bill would allocate $50
million each for 2003 and 2004 and would make the Office part of the International
Broadcast Bureau, the administrative and engineering arm of the Voice of
America. A similar bill is to be introduce by the Senate.
