Government's Internet Denial Of Safety

Responding to the proposals set out in the Government’s Internet Safety Strategy, Liberal Democrat Home Affairs Spokesperson Ed Davey commented: "The substance in this Green Paper falls far short of its ambitious title. "We must make the internet a much safer place – particularly for young people. "But that means the hard graft of better digital education, faster reporting of problems and stronger partnerships with industry. "Regrettably this Government is still in the blame game, scapegoating and castigating internet firms, and failing to see the huge economic benefits of investing in better digital education. "Hopefully this Green Paper will be the last of the weak policy reheats and signal the start of real hard work on this issue."
