Germany’s Plan to Implement Internet Filters by Law
There is a nice article written by Johnny Haeusler from [spreeblick.com](http://www.spreeblick.com) about our (Germany's) government's plans to filter the internet using the excuse of fighting against child abuse.
Fighting against child abuse... sounds right, doesn't it? Sure! But just putting stop signs in front of those disgusting webpages (by using DNS redirections) does surely NOT help ANY child. This crime has to be fought against at the roots - the families that abuse their childs. Implementing internet filters by law is a very dangerous plan - and it will (maybe not tomorrow or next year) be used to censor the Internet.
Even if you don't live in Germany, I think it can't hurt to see what's going on right now in the land of poets and "thinkers".
Johnny's [article](http://www.spreeblick.com/2009/05/13/germanys-plan-to-implement-internet-filters-by-law/) is written in english, so please take a few minutes and read it. Thanks!
