hier iets dat we via-via ontvingen...

appearantly the ball is rolling...

The European Commission has invited us, the Institute of International and
European Affairs (IIEA) (www.iiea.com) to undertake a very important
project. We have been commissioned to study current practices against
illegal internet content in the EU to determine whether any should be
adopted to prevent the spread of illegal violent radical content online.

This survey is an excellent opportunity for leading EU ISP's to directly
influence the course of European policy in this area. Your input and
participation is of critical importance.

Our objective is to understand ISPs' efforts to tackle illegal content, how
they interact with hotlines and law enforcement, and what are the strengths
and weaknesses of existing approaches to illegal content. I am wondering
would your organisation be able to please forward this short survey to your
three or four four largest members and ask them to complete or complete it
yourself? Any assistance you could offer would be grately appreciated.


For further information on this study please see
http://www.iiea.com/staff?workingGroupUrlKey=violent-radicalisation. We very
much look forward to receiving your input and bringing it to the attention
of the European Commission. We are contacting the major ISps across the EU
territory for their input as this is a superb chance for ISps to voice their
opinions on what future policy should look like in this area.

*NOTE*: I appreciate ISPs are extremely busy but we would be extremely
appreciative if the ISPs could answer ALL questions enclosed and if you they
respond to us with requisite survey results ideally no later than *TEN
DAYS*of receipt of this email.

1. Is this something your organisation can help us with?

2. On our website there is an RFC document
http://www.iiea.com/blogosphere/rfc2 We would greatly appreciate it if you
could look at our section on your country and see if it is accurate. For
example have we included all the relevant information, is there anything
missing that we can add, is the information accurate?

Kind regards,
