[governance] CircleID: Why trade policy can help preserve the open Internet and bridge the Digital Divide

[Rafik Dammak]

Hi Nick,

thanks for sharing, I think that is the same page with arguments developed
in the book "electronic silk road" (
http://yalepress.yale.edu/book.asp?isbn=9780300154597) which highlighted
WTO role and also the report from ECIPE about censorship and trade (
http://www.ecipe.org/publications/protectionism-online-internet-censorship-and-international-trade-law/
).

Best,

Rafik
