Human rights and wrongs online
Mark Rasch, 2006-03-13

A government's position on censorship used to protect its citizenry is dictated by who they are. The well-popularized censorship of Internet content in China by Google and other big players, and criticism of this by the U.S. government, is really just the tip of the iceburg.

There are no differences between censorships ? they always protect the one who creates it ? government itself. Governments that can freely monitor its citizen ? will monitor its citizen (for the sake of current national interests). In this case Internet is just another tool ? in China or in USA.
