Create a Cyber Charter of Fundamental Rights

I believe that we need for the cyberspace a Charter of Fundamental Rights, the John Perry Barlow’s “Declaration of the Independence of supplements Cyber Space” from the year 1996. To me it’s not about to give the Internet a constitution. That would be almFost a rape of Barlow’s teachings, which he so eloquently, indeed almost grandiose points out, has. We need security in cyberspace with no government, we need freedom.

This Bill of Rights is to establish the fundamental freedoms of the Internet, which must be protected against restrictions imposed by governments, companies, institutions, criminals, insurgents and criminal gangs. Google behaves in the confrontation with China as the ambassador of the ancient world of the Internet according to its own (rediscovered) Enterprise principles. It is therefore wise to determine our own principles and to discuss.
