more on Internet censorship

>From Edupage, 8 June 1997:

  GERMAN COURT TO TRY WOMAN FOR GUERRILLA HYPERLINKS
  A court in Berlin will hear the case of a woman accused of providing
  a hyperlink on her Web site to provide visitors access to the banned
  left-wing publication Radikal, a publication which offers
  instructions on how to sabotage railway lines.  (New York Times
   6 Jun 97 & 7 Jun 97)

To be in compliance with German law, it would seem important that any
librarian or scholarly researcher compiling lists of Internet resources
relevant to terrorism avoid (self-censor) such links.

Note that I have *not* posted this to filt4lib, since although it involves
censorship as it may impact libraries, it does not directly involve
filtering.
