This collection of thirteen new essays is the first to examine, from a range of disciplinary perspectives, how the new technologies and global reach of the Internet are changing the theory and practice of free speech. The rapid expansion of online communication, as well as the changing roles of government and private organizations in monitoring and regulating the digital world, give rise to new questions, including: How do philosophical defenses of the right to freedom of expression, developed in the age of the town square and the printing press, apply in the digital age? Should search engines be covered by free speech principles? How should international conflicts over online speech regulations be resolved? Is there a right to be forgotten that is at odds with the right to free speech? How has the Internet facilitated new speech-based harms such as cyber-stalking, twitter-trolling, and revenge porn, and how should these harms be addressed? The contributors to this groundbreaking volume include philosophers, legal theorists, political scientists, communications scholars, public policy makers, and activists.

La censure est, hélas, aussi éternelle qu’universelle : elle a condamné le philosophe grec Socrate à boire la mortelle ciguë pour avoir prôné la parole libre ; et les œuvres de l’artiste contemporain Ai Wei-Wei sont traquées par les dizaines de milliers de fonctionnaires chinois sur les blogs et les réseaux sociaux. Dans ce Grand Livre de la censure, celle-ci est visitée au gré de ses différentes obsessions : les bonnes mœurs, la religion, la politique et le pouvoir, la préservation de la santé, le maintien de dogmes scientifiques, tout comme la lutte contre le « pacifisme », la drogue, la sorcellerie ou encore le « socialement incorrect ». Aucun genre n’y a échappé : de la littérature à la chanson, cinéma aux arts plastiques, du théâtre à la presse, de la radio à la télévision, sans oublier les jeux vidéo ou internet. On croisera donc ici Ovide et les Beatles, Galilée et Darwin, Carmen et Lady Gaga, Goya et Tolkien, Rodin et les Frères Jacques, Albert Camus et Ai Wei-Wei, Voltaire et Picasso, Salman Rushdie et les Pussy Riot… Le grand livre de la censure raconte au lecteur un large choix d’affaires (près de deux cents…), anciennes ou contemporaines, franco-françaises ou au retentissement mondial, en mêlant les grands scandales qui ont marqué leur époque et d’autres interdictions moins connues, mais méritant d’être sorties de la discrétion ou de l’oubli. Car l’important est aussi de comprendre que la censure, inventive, perturbée par le pouvoir des mots et des images, est bel et bien, depuis toujours, le miroir de l’humanité et de nos peurs.

The hidden rise of personalization on the Internet is controlling--and limiting--the information we consume. In 2009, Google began customizing its search results. Instead of giving you the most broadly popular result, Google now tries to predict what you are most likely to click on. According to MoveOn.org board president Eli Pariser, this change is symptomatic of the most significant shift to take place on the Web in recent years--the rise of personalization. Though the phenomenon has gone largely undetected until now, personalized filters are sweeping the Web, creating individual universes of information for each of us. Data companies track your personal information to sell to advertisers, from your political leanings to the hiking boots you just browsed on Zappos. In a personalized world, we will increasingly be typed and fed only news that is pleasant, familiar, and confirms our beliefs--and because these filters are invisible, we won't know what is being hidden from us. Our past interests will determine what we are exposed to in the future, leaving less room for the unexpected encounters that spark creativity, innovation, and the democratic exchange of ideas.--
