Russia, China, Tajikistan propose UN "code of conduct" for the 'Net

Quick show of hands: which four countries would you most trust to introduce a United Nations-backed “international code of conduct for information security” on the Internet? If your list included China, Russia, Tajikistan, and Uzbekistan, then you'll love the new code of conduct (PDF) introduced at the 66th session of the United Nations General Assembly in New York last week.

Almost tempting to make a poll of the above....

Perhaps you're willing to point out where this proposal is adressed in this article? I can't find it.

Can't say I've tried that. How does it compare to Tor or FreeNet?

With my connection it's impossible to say, on a bad day I actually find it difficult to tell the difference in speed between TOR and plain internet, for instance (3G is funky like that).

Freenet I was never all that impressed with tbh. On a metered connection it's basically useless.
