Google reports 'alarming' rise in censorship by governments

Search engine company has said there has been a troubling increase in requests to remove political content from the internet
There has been an alarming rise in the number of times governments attempted to censor the internet in last six months, according to a report from Google.Since the search engine last published its bi-annual transparency report, it said it had seen a troubling increase in requests to remove political content. Many of these requests came from western democracies not typically associated with censorship.
It said Spanish regulators asked Google to remove 270 links to blogs and newspaper articles critical of public figures. It did not comply. In Poland, it was asked to remove an article critical of the Polish agency for enterprise development and eight other results that linked to the article. Again, the company did not comply.
Google was asked by Canadian officials to remove a YouTube video of a citizen urinating on his passport and flushing it down the toilet. It refused.
Thai authorities asked Google to remove 149 YouTube videos for allegedly insulting the monarchy, a violation of Thailand's lèse-majesté law. The company complied with 70% of the requests.
Pakistan asked Google to remove six YouTube videos that satirised its army and senior politicians. Google refused.
UK police asked the company to remove five YouTube accounts for allegedly promoting terrorism. Google agreed. In the US most requests related to alleged harassment of people on YouTube. The authorities asked for 187 pieces to be removed. Google complied with 42% of them.
In a blog post, Dorothy Chou, Google's senior policy analyst, wrote: "Unfortunately, what we've seen over the past couple years has been troubling, and today is no different. When we started releasing this data, in 2010, we noticed that government agencies from different countries would sometimes ask us to remove political content that our users had posted on our services. We hoped this was an aberration. But now we know it's not.
"This is the fifth data set that we've released. Just like every other time, we've been asked to take down political speech. It's alarming not only because free expression is at risk, but because some of these requests come from countries you might not suspect – western democracies not typically associated with censorship."
Over the six months covered by the latest report, Google complied with an average of 65% of court orders, as opposed to 47% of more informal requests.
Last month Google announced it was receiving more than one million requests a month from copyright owners seeking to pull their content from the company's search results.
Fred von Lohmann, Google's senior copyright counsel, said copyright infringement was the main reason Google had removed links from search terms.
He said the company had received a total of 3.3m requests for removals on copyright grounds last year, and was on course to quadruple that number this year. The company complied with 97% of requests.
Homosexual Lobby made a renewed assault upon the Boy Scouts of America
The Boy Scouts are under attack again.
Over the past few days, the Homosexual Lobby made a renewed assault upon the Boy Scouts of America -- their most dangerous since 2008.
You see, the Boy Scouts refuse to allow any open homosexual to serve as scout leader.
And I couldn’t agree with them more!
The Scouts’ victory in the Supreme Court in 2008 is a particular point of pride for me and Public Advocate.
Countless thousands of supporters signed the Amicus Brief Public Advocate submitted in support of the Scouts’ right to refuse homosexuals access to their boys.
And the Supreme Court saw the truth of the pro-Family position.
With Public Advocate’s help, the Boy Scouts preserved their right to turn away homosexual adults.
But the Homosexual Lobby never gave up that dream...
Now a member of the Boy Scouts’ own national board of directors is working against them.
James Turley has publicly admitted his plan to make the Scouts pro-homosexual.
He proposed they immediately accept the countless homosexuals lined waiting to join the Scouts.
The Homosexual Lobby moved quickly to claim a victory, declaring that the Morality Policy was being revised, but I am proud to say there was never a chance of that.
The National Executive Board of the Scouts was quick to crush this rumor, announcing that the Boy Scouts were committed to maintaining their moral standard.
The Homosexual Lobby claims June as their “pride” month and they seem determined to end this fight during their celebrations.
But you and I will never let that happen.
I need you to call the national office of the Boy Scouts, thank them for standing strong and request that they remove James Turly from any position of leadership: (972)580-2000
Let them know that they will not face this threat alone.
You and I have to show the Homosexual Lobby that they cannot have the Boy Scouts of America!
For the Family,
Eugene Delgaudio
President, Public Advocate of the United States
