| Message | Our current proposal has all of the same rules that would apply to normal police investigations, warrants would be required for search and seizure in all cases. If the site or computer in which the crime is taking place is in our country, the illegal material may be seized and taken down, as the warrant permits. If the data is owned by our citizens, then, with the hosts nation permission, will seek their assistance in removing the illegal material. Websites that do not encourage, endorse, or otherwise permit illegal activity would not be held responsible for the actions of their users, however if they encourage, endorse, or otherwise permit any illegal activity, the website may be taken down and the data upon it seized by the government, warrant permitting. If the crime is taken by foreign citizens, that is for their country to deal with. We have no right to seize data that is not owned by our citizens. If the owner of the information is known, an arrest warrant must also be obtained in order to precipitate their arrest. This law only empowers the government to enforce already existing offences committed over the internet. Dr. Winston Yates, PhD Head of the RP |
