Hi List,
I have come across an article in the Swiss newspaper Neue Zürcher
Zeitung. The link was posted on the German list Rohrpost. The article
is in German and quite long.

By way of summary: it is about changes that seem of be imminent in the
way that states treat the world wide web, as a consequence of the NSA
scandal. Brasil, for example, is looking to implement a national web
legislation that will only allow content providers who store data on
Brasilian servers to be visible in Brasil. The fear is that not only
totalitarian states shut themselves off but also democratic ones.
Apparently the bigname players have published an open letter a while
ago, warning of economic dangers in creating national internets.
Maybe this of interest.
best
Jorn
