Copyright (c) 1997 - Ingrid A. Rimland April 27, 1997 Good Morning from the Zundelsite: We are getting help from unexpected sources. Not meant for us and our anti-censorship struggle, of course - but nonetheless extremely useful - we give this press release a helpful ZGram ride in hopes of spreading the good word. It is dated April 23, 1997. It is titled "Letter to Chancellor Kohl Urges Investigation of Compuserve Prosecution". It says the following very clearly and succinctly, which we hope we can apply in the upcoming Canadian Human Rights Tribunal Hearings meant to shut down your very own beloved and highly useful Zundelsite. Read it carefully and see if the statements apply to ALL global internet censorship-or if you can spot any exceptions: "A coalition of civil liberties organizations from a dozen countries has written to German Chancellor Helmut Kohl to express concern about the prosecution of an official from the Compuserve company which makes available Internet access to German subscribers. The official has been indicted by local prosecutors. The letter states the prosecution of the Compuserve manager Mr. Felix Somm is "ill-advised for both technical and regulatory reasons" and will "have a harmful impact on Internet users around the world." The groups said that "the charges against CompuServe will establish a harmful precedent, and may encourage other governments to censor speech, limit political debate, control artistic expression, and otherwise deny the opportunity for individuals to be fully informed."
