God beware us of politicians... they are the worst... if we talk about
labels... They understand the less (compared business and technicians)

I do believe more in a dynamic approach. Don't give people power which
don't understand and actually do not have the controll over the network!
I we would, this could lead in control of content in europe because
China would not compromise in some trade affairs... And I am also
against the worldwide control of content even if this means allowing
right radicals to put thier nonsense on the web. This is not that worse.
More worse would be the control of the politics over the net!

grass-roots democracy not representative democracy!

I prefer the "big money" which does not look on my political opinions.
Politics and Law may and should rule the businesses so that tehy do us
no harm. But that should suffice.
