As the internet has been regulated from its conception, many
widespread beliefs regarding internet freedom are actually
misconceptions. Additionally, there are already two main categories
of internet regulation systems in use: the open and the silent
IRSs. Unexpectedly, the former are quite popular among
authoritarian regimes, while the latter are implemented mainly in
Western democracies. Many IT experts and media analysts criticize
Western governments' choice to use a silent IRS, expressing their
fear that this could set a dangerous precedent for the rest of the
democratic countries around the world. New regulation systems must
be developed and implemented that are more acceptable to the
general public. Internet Censorship and Regulation Systems in
Democracies: Emerging Research and Opportunities is an essential
reference source that discusses the phenomenon of internet
regulation in general and the use of internet regulation systems
(IRSs) by authoritarian regimes and Western democracies and
proposes a blueprint for the development and implementation of a
fair internet regulation system (FIRS). The book also considers the
function of a fair internet regulation system in terms of
maximizing its effectiveness, keeping the implementation cost low,
and increasing the probability of acceptance by each country's
general public. Featuring research on topics such as governmental
control, online filtering, and public opinion, this book is ideally
designed for researchers, policymakers, government officials,
practitioners, academicians, and students seeking coverage on
modern internet censorship policies within various international
democracies.
