Re:UN council: Nations, stop switching off the internet by rayiner on Sunday July 03, 2016 @04:39PM (#12027526)
You're totally wrong about the second part. India--a democracy--voted the same way as China. People there have very different beliefs than people in the West are used to. E.g. In my home country, the original constitution declared a secular democracy in the 1970s. In the 1990s, Islam was made the state religion, with strong popular support. In that country, if the UN delegation voted in favor of protecting freedom of expression on the Internet, they would do so against the will of the people.
