Risks of repression & censorship in the name of cybersecurity
http://j.mp/TryERJ (CDT [PDF])
"Member States of the International Telecommunication Union (ITU)
are considering this year whether to extend the ITUs regulatory
authority to the Internet. Several proposals have been made to
revise the ITUs basic treaty to include provisions addressing the
security of networks or information. These proposals have rightly
raised controversy not only because of their implications for
Internet freedom, but also because of concerns that ITU
intervention could distract from or undermine other ongoing efforts
by institutions better suited to address Internet security."
