These are the types of people who want to wrest control of the internet away from the US. If you’re for that sort of thing, you may want to reconsider:
PARIS (Reuters) – [tag]Tunisia[/tag] refused entry to the chief of [tag]media[/tag] watchdog [tag]Reporters Without Borders[/tag] (RSF) on Thursday when he arrived for a U.N. summit at which journalists have been harassed, the Paris-based organization said.
Several European journalists covering the [tag]World Summit on the Information Society[/tag] — a [tag]U.N.[/tag] conference on the [tag]Internet[/tag] — have been intimidated, questioned or prevented from attending public meetings, other reporters have said.
“I wasn’t even able to get off the plane,” RSF chief Robert Menard told Europe 1 radio. “Just after the plane stopped, I was told to remain seated and to wait until everyone had disembarked.
“At that point, a policeman, who must have been a Tunisian policeman, came and told me that I wasn’t allowed on Tunisian territory. He explained to me that I did not have authorization to take part in the summit.”
