We think of the internet as an endless expanse of data and interaction with big, bright points of focus, and a million dark corners. But more and more, your view of the web’s vast spectrum depends a lot on where you live. In Vietnam, there’s an extreme example of censorship. A new law there will make it illegal to post news or quote “general information” on the internet. What the heck does that mean? Hard to know, and that’s on purpose, says Madeline Earp, of the advocacy group Freedom House. Earp has been working on a big report out next month called Freedom of the Net. She says Vietnam is a country that is going the China route in internet policy.
