Yes, Suresh, but French law stopped death penalty, now. For a long.
BTW, I live just near the place where the first tries of guillotine were
made, with animals, during the French Revolution.
At that time, it was a big progress in the way of killing without
barbary and with respect of equality <span class="moz-smiley-s1" title=":-)"></span>

You're perfectly right. But French laws about spying and interceptions
are in discussions in France just now.
All countries have to clean one's home about all human rights.
Perhaps we could compete aiming to improve all laws, instead of
justifying bad laws with others.
BUT about the US problem, the question is:
1. <b class="moz-txt-star"><span class="moz-txt-tag">*</span>dangerous<span class="moz-txt-tag">*</span></b> coexistence of bad laws + Internet control + global IT
companies,
2. need of a more <b class="moz-txt-star"><span class="moz-txt-tag">*</span>balanced<span class="moz-txt-tag">*</span></b> power in Internet management and in
Internet economic system,
3. need of <b class="moz-txt-star"><span class="moz-txt-tag">*</span>diversity<span class="moz-txt-tag">*</span></b>: complexity sciences demonstrate that lack of
diversity lead to collapse,
4. we are at a crossroad about <b class="moz-txt-star"><span class="moz-txt-tag">*</span>choice of civilization<span class="moz-txt-tag">*</span></b>. We must keep
open mixing several models of societies, selecting best parts of several
ones.

<pre wrap="">Dear Steve,
Thanks for your very interesting and clarifying technical comments.
But about this precise point of trust, a large part of the world could
consider that US law is good <b class="moz-txt-star"><span class="moz-txt-tag">*</span>for US<span class="moz-txt-tag">*</span></b>.
Because of a bunch of recent laws that extend extraterritoriality and
allow surveillance.
And because precisely, the high technical qualities require US lawyers...
And because the USA are far and strange for a lot of people.
And because other countries have also good laws.
All these points feed mistrust.
Exactly as a mirror: some US laws are fed of mistrust. And some
practices shew abuses.
Some of American great analysts themselves say it: the US have been
making mistakes at least since 10 years.
So, IMHO, the first question could be: how could we build again some trust?
I think that, perhaps, chosing one common goal could help. But in order
to operate, it must be a bit out of the Internet management game.
And it must include civil society. Not only negociators for trade treaties.
That was the sense of my group's contribution to NetMundial.
Sorry if I disturbed. I saw some light and I entered the house <span class="moz-smiley-s3" title=";-)"></span>
@+, best regards, Dominique
