India Requires Proof of Innocence for Cyber Crimes

David Seltzer highlights a disturbing development in international computer crime law and is concerned that the United States may be going that way, too.  In India an individual charged with a cyber crime now has to prove their innocence.  Read more . . .

I think there is some concern over the way ISP's and Search Engines rollover too easily to law enforcement officials' request for information.  Just look at China, where all the major ISP's and search engines have had to quietly agree to make some information available.

On a related note, I have heard that there is a movement known as "Internet 2.0" (a play on Web 2.0?), which is a plan to re-work the entire internet to fix issues that were not thought of when it first started to emerge.

In conjunction with this, I have heard there is an agenda to really lock the internet down. It's already going to pot in Australia.

I don't think that it will be possible for them to shut off the internet access to think that billions of subscribers will protest to what they are up to I think they wont have the guts to materialize that idea.

I would be pretty hard to control information via world wide web. However, it is possible. Question would be, would the government be that decisive about the law?
