EU ville förbjuda PORR både på nätet och i media - förslaget nedröstat med 368-159
RT 2013-03-12EU:s PORRFÖRBUD har lagts på is, åtminstone tillfälligt då förslaget blev nedröstat i EU-parlamentet. Piratpartiets Christian Engström, säger att det fortfarande föreligger en hel del oklarheter hur resultatet av beslutet skall tolkas.

EU porn ban voted down amid censorship concerns
Language that would ban online pornography has been dropped from a report approved by the European Parliament. But major concerns over the future of Internet privacy remain as legislators themselves were blocked from reading constituents' complaints.
Members of the European Parliament voted 368-159 in favor of passing a report titled “Eliminating gender stereotypes in the EU.”
The rejection of a controversial “porn ban” proposal has seemingly become a major victory for online freedom. But the result was “a little bit unclear,” Christian Engstrom, MEP with Sweden's Pirate Party, told RT.
“The European Parliament said no to turning Internet service providers into porn police, and they said no to setting up authorities to regulate media,” Engstrom explained, adding, though, that the European Parliament still expresses support for an older resolution to ban pornography.
The particular clause has been dropped from the text of the new resolution, but it still contains references to an earlier resolution passed by the parliament in 1997 which calls for “statutory measures to prevent any form of pornography in the media and in advertising.” Although the resolution is not legally binding, it can be used as a basis to form legislation.
