a83ea6 No.11

We, the free people, in order to safeguard the blessings of liberty in this new digital frontier, do establish and proclaim this Internet Bill of Rights, ensuring that the same unalienable freedoms upheld by our forebears shall remain equally inviolable online.

Right to Privacy & Data Ownership

Every individual shall possess sovereign authority over their personal data. No public or private entity may collect, retain, or trade in such data without the freely given consent of its rightful owner. Violations of this right shall be subjected to due process and just remedies, lest our private lives be laid bare to unwarranted scrutiny.

Freedom of Speech & Open Access

As freedom of speech is the cornerstone of a free republic, so shall it be preserved across all digital platforms. No lawful viewpoint shall be suppressed nor any citizen denied access to the modern avenues of discourse for reasons of personal or political preference. The internet, recognized as vital infrastructure, shall remain open to all who peaceably seek to use it.

Regulation of Tech Platforms as Public Utilities

Any platform so central to public discourse, commerce, and communication that it becomes essential to daily life shall be bound by rules akin to those governing common carriers. Such platforms shall not arbitrarily ban, censor, or withhold service from lawful users, ensuring fair access under law and preserving the spirit of competition.

Protection from Unlawful Surveillance & Cyber Threats

No individual shall be subjected to unwarranted digital surveillance by government or corporate entities. All surveillance must require a judicial warrant based on probable cause, ensuring strict adherence to constitutional protections. Laws such as the Patriot Act and practices like NSA mass surveillance must be repealed to restore and uphold the right to privacy.

Digital Literacy Education

Recognizing that an informed citizenry is essential to the preservation of freedom, education in digital skills and ethics shall be afforded to all. Public instruction shall equip each generation with knowledge of their digital rights, the means to protect themselves online, and the discernment to use technology responsibly.

Universal Passive Income from Data

Whereas corporations have amassed great wealth through the acquisition and exploitation of personal information, it is hereby declared that every individual possesses an inherent right to the fruits of their own digital labor. Let laws be established to ensure that those who generate value through their data receive just compensation. This shall affirm the sanctity of property rights in the digital realm and promote widespread economic opportunity, thereby safeguarding the prosperity and liberty of all citizens.

Conclusion

We affirm that these principles are in steadfast harmony with the noble cause of liberty for which our forefathers valiantly struggled. As the relentless advance of technology reshapes our world, we proclaim the eternal truth that rights are not bestowed by corporations or governments, but are inherent and inalienable to every individual. Let this Internet Bill of Rights stand as an unyielding bulwark against any encroachment upon our freedoms, securing the blessings of digital liberty for ourselves and for all posterity. Moreover, we issue a solemn warning: as new technologies emerge, let us remain ever vigilant to ensure that such innovations serve to elevate humanity and preserve our cherished liberties, rather than becoming instruments of tyranny and subjugation.
