An insightful comment to Chris’s piece on the report of the UN Human Rights Council’s special rapporteur’s report comes from the Swedish Netopia.se blog (in Swedish but we used a translator–guess which one we didn’t use).  Per Strömbäck observes in his post:

“Castle points out that La Rue limited itself to take into account article 19 (freedom of expression and information) in the UN Declaration on Human Rights and turned a blind eye to Article 27 [artist rights]. I asked just that question to a panel at  Internetdagarna 2009 [conference] and Nicklas Lundblad (then at the Stockholm Chamber of Commerce, now in Google [as Director of Public Policy] and certainly an important source of La Rue) replied that article 19 provides instructions on how to article 27 should be rewritten.”
