[governance] A Wave of the Watch List, and Speech Disappears

[Milton L Mueller]

Fractal is a mathematical (geometry) concept that does have some applicability here.

Also they are fun....

Dear Bertrand --

After consulting my Webster's dictionary, I fear "fractalization" isn't a word in English (tho maybe you've just invented it).

One could speak of "fracturing of soveregnty" or "fractioning" or "disaggregation" or "disintegration" of sovereignty.

But I think Meryem is right. Why not just stick to the idea that jurisdiction should be execised by the country of origin of the content (altho in cyberspace, establishing country of origin isn't necessarily easy, especially when there are deliberate attempts to obfuscate it) ?

Amitiés, Rony Koven
