Internet, ITU, and the Media Cold War
http://j.mp/PZYb33 (Project Syndicate)
"This larger struggle is playing out in many places, including the ITU,
which will convene 190 countries in Dubai in December to update an
international telecommunications treaty first adopted in 1988.
Although many of the treaty's details are highly technical, involving
the routing of telecommunications, various governments have submitted
proposals to amend the treaty that include provisions aimed at
facilitating government censorship of the Internet."
