receive and impart information and ideas through any media and
regardless of frontiers.
Tout individu a droit à la liberté d'opinion et d'expression, ce qui
implique le droit de ne pas être inquiété pour ses opinions et celui de
chercher, de recevoir et de répandre, sans considération de frontière,
les informations et les idées par quelque moyen d'expression que ce soit.

"La langue
française est une femme. Et cette femme est si belle, si fière, si
modeste, si hardie, touchante, voluptueuse, chaste, noble, familière,
folle, sage, qu'on l'aime de toute son âme, et qu'on n'est jamais tenté
de lui être infidèle." (Anatole
France)

Freedom of Expression
Liberté d'Expression
The web
is a great tool for sharing ideas and freedom of expression. However,
efforts to try and control the Internet are growing. Internet repression
is reported in countries like China, Vietnam, Tunisia, Iran, Saudi
Arabia and Syria. People are persecuted and imprisoned simply for
criticising their government, calling for democracy and greater press
freedom, or exposing human rights abuses, online.
But Internet repression is not just about governments. IT companies have
helped build the systems that enable surveillance and censorship to take
place. Yahoo! have supplied email users’ private data to the Chinese
authorities, helping to facilitate cases of wrongful imprisonment.
Microsoft and Google have both complied with government demands to
actively censor Chinese users of their services.
Freedom of expression is a
fundamental human right. It is one of the most precious of all rights.
We should fight to protect it.
