About internet circumvention and the USA

The Norwegian government say that the Americans is pushing them to abide the EU-regulation on total internet surveillance, so it was interesting to read what Ethan Zuckerman wrote in his blog yesterday:

"The US should strongly pressure governments in open societies like Australia and France to resist the temptation to restrict internet access, as their behavior helps China and Iran make the case that their censorship is in line with international norms."
