Publisher's Synopsis
Chinese government censorship has kept pace with rapidly changing modern technology, and the government has established an elaborate Internet control regime intended to filter out information on sensitive topics as well as to inhibit the use of the Internet as a tool for developing institutions of civil society. American companies have played a prominent role in facilitating the government's construction of this Internet control regime. We hope that our discussions here today will contribute to the public debate as to whether or not further U.S. government action is required to regulate the participation of these U.S. companies in the censorship regimes of not just China but other foreign governments as well.
