[governance] FW: [liberationtech] Chinese preparing for a "Autonomous Internet" ?

Hi Baudouin,

The issue arising  here is that of ownership in the cyber space.
I want to believe that in the nearest future, the hypothesis of partitioning the global web space into national web spaces might come to the scene.
A scenario where internet users will need a kind of virtual visa to gain access to a web space out of their national territory.
To anticipate this kind of an event, we should take the chinese very serious and dig deep into the initiative.
May be its an polite method of contesting the legitimacy of the Internet governing body?
----------------
permit me to ask the following question:
- Which is more important, the content in the internet or the technology?
- If you create your own technology, is there any guarantee that you will not censor content? (PIPA/SOPA)
- If we create virtual borders in our cyber space, what will become of the information society?+
- Are we going to jeopardize the outcomes of Tunis Summit ?

These are just a few questions for us to ponder on, especially or Chinese friends and colleagues.

hello all,

I wonder about the relevance of the Chinese proposal for the autonomy of the Internet!
Given the changes in strength of online crime or more of the core cybrecriminalité in cyberspace, this proposal of autonomy of the internet would it not justified?
There is reason to believe and even to believe that there are states that are also cyber criminals!
