[governance] Is This An Issue for Internet Governance/Internet Human Rights?

[Deirdre Williams]

I would think that it is a fundamental internet governance issue going to
basic concerns like trust and responsibility and how these work "online".
Try reading the argument while leaving out any references to "Google"
specifically.
When the crunch comes it would appear that currently, legally, "we" have no
rights at all.
