US-Wahlen: Netz/regulation angesagt-.-. --.- -.-. --.- -.-. --.- -.-. --.- -.-. --.- -.-. --.- ziemlich viel [teils qualitativ wirklich Gutes] an Netz/satire entstanden ist, will die Federal Elections Commission vor kommenden Präsidentenwahlen Inhalte und Vorgangsweisen regulieren. Weil Civil Libertins dies nicht gern hören, läuft eine vom Center for Democracy and Technology angeführte Aktion dagegen an. -.-. --.- -.-. --.- -.-. --.- -.-. --.- -.-. --.- -.-. --.- relayed by Ari Schwartz ari@cdt.org -.-. --.- -.-. --.- -.-. --.- -.-. --.- -.-. --.- -.-. --.- Organizations from across the political spectrum have submitted a joint statement to the Federal Election Commission urging it to refrain from regulating political speech of individuals on the Internet. CDT, the ACLU, People for the American Way and Paul Weyrich's Free Congress Foundation, among others, urge the FEC to: * Delay any attempt at comprehensive rulemaking until after the 2000 election cycle; * Create, through a clear statement on valuation, a "safe harbor" for Internet political speech by individuals during the 2000 election cycle; and, * Take a cautious approach to online campaign-related activities during the 2000 election cycle by entities such as corporations, labor unions, educational entities, and non- profit entities, other than candidates, political parties, and PACs, acting narrowly in response to advisory opinion requests and complaints and to redress clear violations of existing law. The comments are available on CDT's Web site at http://www.cdt.org/speech/political/000106fec.shtml. (2) HUNDREDS OF NETIZENS VOICE CONCERNS AS WELL Internet activists have also taken an active role by submitting comments to the FEC in this process. So far over 800 comments from over 200 citizens have been sent to the FEC through CDT's action page - http://www.cdt.org/action/ - an online resource designed to make it easier for Web users to voice their opinions on whether campaign-related activities on the Internet should be regulated. Almost all of the comments expressed concern over any FEC regulation of the political speech of individuals on the Internet. CDT will be releasing some of these concerned citizens' comments soon. -.- -.-. --.- -.-. --.- -.-. --.- -.-. --.- -.-. --.- -.-. --.- -.-. --.- - -.-. --.- -.-. --.- -.-. --.- -.-. --.- -.-. --.- -.-. --.- edited by published on: 2000-01-09 comments to office@quintessenz.at subscribe Newsletter - -.-. --.- -.-. --.- -.-. --.- -.-. --.- -.-. --.- -.-. --.-
