Securing views Berg

Censorship on the Internet increases, more and more countries have suggestions on how to access content on the Internet will be limited. Let's not talk about North Korea, China and Iran, but countries that call themselves democracies.

DN has considered this further and shows how, for example, Norway has suggested that online games should be censored, as well as film, music, mockery of the national flag, hatred of authority, discriminatory views and objectionable pornography.

Censorship is a sliding plane (a 'slippery slope "). We understand, however, all the community-driven consistent censorship is different from the filtering of child porn, and it's easy to think that one is right and the other wrong. The fact that child pornography in all its manifestations is monumentally repulsive means that we have invited to the filtering and censorship, and we have been there from the democratic principle that no preview, but act on what you find. Then you have broken a basic democratic principle, and it will become only the question of how "dark" on the gray scale is accepted.

The above does not mean that I am for child porn. but, if one is to engage in the fight against child porn with principles that are contrary to democratic rule, I am rather for capital punishment than censure.

If I have any confidence in Sweden as a rule, it must in any case, the filtering is handled by an organ of society and not in secret without public scrutiny and without access to public review.
