hi
thanks ralf, tapani, daniel - for your hard work in drafting groups..
>1. The reference to the Cybercrime Convention is still in brackets,
>because of oppositiojn from China and Russia (strange bedfellows, I feel).
good that it's in brackets...
>2. At the last minute, Israel suggested a new paragraph. They will discuss
>it this evening, I think. The paragraph reads:
>
>"New 50bis. We underline the importance of countering the manifestations
>of terrorism at all its forms in the Internet. In particular, we condemn
>the use of the internet for purposes of financing of terrorist acts,
>radicalization towards terrorist acts, recruitment for terrorist acts, and
>glorification of terrorist acts that may incite further terrorist acts."
>
>We will issue a statement. Any help with writing and formulations more
>than welcome.
delete ideally.. but i can't help on this, i hope gus is with us
are there other paras dealing with use of the internet? eg.. what happened
to this awful para? (korea)
49 bis: We reiterate our commitments to the [positive/ethical] uses of the
ICTs [with internet (Korea)] and to take appropriate actions and preventive
measures, as determined by law, against abusive uses of ICTs as mentioned
under the Ethical Dimension of the Information Society of the Geneva
Declaration of Principles and Plan of Actions.
we have the ethics and values caucus (of civil society) to thank for that!
(the Geneva stuff)
