Who, if anyone, can or should police the web? How do we protect freedom of expression online in the face of demands to respect religious, political and cultural sensititivies? How do we stop new technology turning the web into a snoopers’ paradise for police and governments?
Chaired by renowned journalist and editor TN Ninan, our panel will include Ajit Balakrishnan (founder and Chief Executive of rediff.com), Sunil Abraham (Executive Director of the Centre for Internet and Society), Kirsty Hughes (CEO of Index on Censorship), Milind Deora (Minister of Communications, to be confirmed) and one other international speaker to be announced.
This is the first in a series of international events organised by Index on Censorship, designed to raise the issue of free expression in key countries around the world.
