| Press statement on the London Riots: Social media does not cause social problems |
APC and GreenNet strongly condemn the violence of looters and rioters but we also call for a measured and thorough investigation into the causes of the riots and the use of social media and mobile phone networks. We urge that no new regulatory interventions be imposed until this investigation is finished, and that any proposals comply with and uphold the human rights of UK citizens. Access to communications is a basic right and there should be no “prior restraint”. |
