what is the name of the current conference where the free world is attempting to convince the communist and arab world that internet censorship is a bad thing?
can't find it via google - heard it on npr (?) this morning or last night.

this is an attempt at producing a non-censorable internet http://www.npr.org/i...spring12/?p=168
but... heavy-handed govt's will find a way.
