GÜREH: KORKMUYORUZ
ntvmsnbc’ye konuşan Agos muhabiri Sarkis Güreh, olayın ‘can sıkıcı’ olduğunu belirterek ‘Şu an bir şey yapmıyoruz ki bıraktıkları izler kaybolmasın. İnternet hizmeti aldığımız şirketi arıyoruz, ardından da yasal işlemleri başlatmak için avukatlarımızla görüşeceğiz’ yorumunu yaptı.
Olayın kendisini üzdüğünü ifade eden Güreh, ‘Ama korku duymuyoruz’ dedi.
ÇALIŞLAR: CESARET BULUYORLAR
Konuyla ilgili NTV’ye konuşan Radikal gazetesi Oral Çalışlar ise şunları söyledi:
‘Devlet isterse bu tür müdahaleleri saptayabilir. Bir an önce hukuki süreci başlatılması gerekiyor. Daha önce de kahraman gibi karşılanmıştı, bu ilk kez karşılaşılan bir olay değil.
Devlet güçleri yeterli duyarlılığı göstermiyor. Bu cesareti boşuna bulmuyorlar, onlara bu cesareti veren güçler var.
Yazıda tehdit de yer alıyor. Yetkililerin hemen harekete geçmesi gerekiyor.’
Council of Europe Publishing: Racism on the Internet
Sunday, February 7th, 2010Yaman Akdeniz, Racism on the Internet, Council of Europe Publishing, 2010 (ISBN 978-92-871-6634-0) is now available.
Racism was a pressing social problem long before the emergence of the digital age. The advancement of digital communication technologies such as the Internet has, however, added a new dimension to this problem by providing individuals and organisations with modern and powerful means to propagate racism and xenophobia. The use of the Internet as an instrument for the widespread dissemination of racist content is assessed in detail by Yaman Akdeniz.
The problem of racist content on the Internet has naturally prompted vigorous responses from a variety of agents, including governments, supranational and international organisations and from the private sector. This book also provides a detailed critical overview of these regulatory and non-regulatory initiatives.
