Let’s keep a focus on the subject of illegal internet content.<\/p>\n

In Canada, we can view the issue from the perspectives of kids’ internet safety (see KINSA<\/a>) and hate. We brought the subject of Illegal Content to the floor of The 2006 Canadian Telecom Summit with a session featuring compelling presentations by Paul Gillespie<\/a> of the Toronto Police Child Exploitation Unit and Bernie Farber of Canadian Jewish Congress.<\/p>\n

We applied some of these learnings in last week’s application<\/a> to the CRTC and that action has moved the discussion to radio talk shows and news headlines from coast-to-coast.<\/p>\n

Michael Geist<\/a> writes:<\/p>\n

If there is an effort to develop an appropriate policy framework, it will need to include complaints mechanisms, a presumption that the content is lawful and must be disproved by a high standard of evidence, an opportunity to challenge blocking requests, appropriate judicial oversight, and full transparency about blocking activities.<\/span><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

We agree.<\/p>\n

We would also want to explore the possibility that blocking not be mandated, but perhaps hold out an incentive for carriers and ISPs to subscribe to the scheme. ISPs that participate could be absolved of any liability – both for carrying illegal content that was not correctly flagged and for blocking content that should not have been blocked – as long as the service providers implement the prescribed blocking solution. It gives ISPs the ability to point to others to apply blame in either direction.<\/p>\n

We also believe that research into technology solutions should accompany the policy framework development. BT has had its Cleanfeed project operating for two years now and it has since been adopted by 3 Scandinavian countries. These are solutions in operation in familiar democratic regimes.<\/p>\n

This is not a case of Canada adopting Chinese-styled limits on civil freedoms; it is moving Canada back into a leadership position in exploring ways to exert its sovereignty in cyberspace.<\/p>\n

When Canadians are threatened, shouldn’t they be able to rely on their own instruments of justice?<\/p>\n
