Fresh off the utter embarrassment of naming Saudi Arabia as the head of a key human rights panel, the United Nations is this time taking aim at the free internet with a plan released Thursday by the organizations Broadband Commission for Digital Development that, if implemented, would literally end the internet as we know it.

The report, supposedly commissioned to study and find ways to deter harassment of woman online, is chalked full of purposeful misrepresentations and included at least two prominent hard left “feminists” speaking about the horrible harassment they have received on the internet. (see being called out for fraud)

In an article for the Washington Post, Caitlin Dewey reveals some of the stunning censorship plans being pushed by the UN, all to save woman from being harassed online, an issue itself that has been unbelievably blown out of proportion.

Under U.S. law — the law that, not coincidentally, governs most of the world’s largest online platforms — intermediaries such as Twitter and Facebook generally can’t be held responsible for what people do on them. But the United Nations proposes both that social networks proactively police every profile and post, and that government agencies only “license” those who agree to do so.

“The respect for and security of girls and women must at all times be front and center,” the report reads, not only for those “producing and providing the content,” but also everyone with any role in shaping the “technical backbone and enabling environment of our digital society.”

How that would actually work, we don’t know; the report is light on concrete, actionable policy. But it repeatedly suggests both that social networks need to opt-in to stronger anti-harassment regimes and that governments need to enforce them proactively.

At one point toward the end of the paper, the U.N. panel concludes that “political and governmental bodies need to use their licensing prerogative” to better protect human and women’s rights, only granting licenses to “those Telecoms and search engines” that “supervise content and its dissemination.”

Basically, in what would be a drastic change, the United Nations wants websites to be responsible for what all their users do as well as to be specifically responsible for enforcing draconian anti harassment measures under the threat of government action.

What this essentially means is that the United Nations wants to drastically change U.S. law and censor the free internet in order to save feminists from having their feelings hurt online.

While any sane person understands that online harassment is a real issue (for both females and males), the idea that we should then change the entire internet to attempt to stop it is ludicrous and frankly highly dangerous to free speech and democracy worldwide.
