Frank La Rue, the U.N. Secretary General, is calling on nations to provide universal anonymous internet access. We appear to be headed toward universal access, but the trend appears to me to be away from anonymous access.

Article excerpt:

<< However, all nations should make plans to offer universal access and also maintain policy that won't limit access for political purposes. In doing so, La Rue calls on governments to decriminalize defamation, do away with real-name registration systems--including the parameters in Facebook's terms and conditions that allows governments to collect users' names and passwords--and restrict rights only in the face of an imminent threat. >>
