<div>I think we all agree</div><div> </div><div>1. Freedom of speech is important</div><div>2. What is said must be carefully said - if it's likely to hurt the sentiments of the masses ("perceived compliance") something should be done to prevent that hurt sentiment - strongest being censorship (but what other measures could be used? - as Riaz said 'Reasonable' measures)</div>
<div>3. Service providers like youtube (google) that have a large reach and huge client base should consider possible methods to prevent hate/racist/etc messages (measures werent mentioned - we could work on this)</div><div>
4. Governments need to know there are measures (point 2 & 3) that can be used without opting for censorship - as Faisal said we need to do our part on this or Governments will probably opt for blanket censorship</div>
<div>5. Violence and censorship are not viable solutions - the damage is just too great</div><div> </div><div>-C<br><br></div><div class="gmail_quote">On Wed, Sep 19, 2012 at 11:22 AM, Salanieta T.

</div>I must have misunderstood some messages, then.<br>
My apologies for all concerned.<br></blockquote><div><br></div></div></div><div>We are all advocates of an open and free internet at least I think we are. Developing a statement will help to give us an opportunity to craft messages about our position in the midst of the turmoil. How we wordsmith would be collaborative but first it has to resonate within the IGC. If the general consensus is not to develop a statement, then we won't.</div>
