Could this be where the real pressure to censor ZA internet (FPB etc) is coming from?:
"It may not have intended to, precisely, but the United Nations just took sides in the Internet’s 'most brutal culture war'."

"...the United Nations then goes on to propose radical, proactive policy changes for both governments and social networks, effectively projecting a whole new vision for how the Internet could work."
"...it repeatedly suggests both that social networks need to opt-in to stronger anti-harassment regimes and that governments need to enforce them proactively."
At one point toward the end of the paper, the U.N. panel concludes that “political and governmental bodies need to use their licensing prerogative” to better protect human and women’s rights, only granting licenses to “those Telecoms and search engines” that “supervise content and its dissemination.”
