Parliaments around the world are acknowledging the serious nature of internet repression and the role that Governments and large companies play in this human rights abuse.The European Parliament has passed a proposal that views internet censorship by national governments as a barrier to trade with the EU. If passed by the European Council and adopted as a European Union (EU) law, the proposal could then impact on EU trade negotiations with governments such as China, Vietnam, Egypt and Iran to name just a few.
