[bestbits] Our statement hits the news

[michael gurstein]

Jeremy,

 

I must say that reading the article and reflecting on its timing and content
rather gives me further reservations about the referenced statement.  

 

Is it the intention of BB to so evidently be align(able) with one side in
the emerging Internet Governance "Cold War"?

 

Perhaps the author of the article being pointed to misread/misinterpreted
the statement but that the statement could be misread in this way should
give some cause for concern I would have thought.
