The case for blog regulation
Wednesday, April 1st, 2009
AFTER much thought and consideration, I spoke in favour of the Regulation of New Media Bill in the Commons last night.
The essential purpose of the legislation, as Andy Burnham, the Culture, Media and Sport Secretary, told the House, is to make sure that new media, like blogs and social networking sites, can’t be used by terrorists (and I accept this is where there will be some disagreement in the blogscape: “terrorists” are defined under Schedule 1 to the Bill as “anyone who pursues a persistent pattern of anti-social or irritating behaviour, such behaviour to be defined as double parking, parking in parent-and-toddler spaces at supermarkets, talking loudly in cinemas or any other activity as defined by the Secretary of State”).
The case for blog regulation | And another thing...
