“…The Netherlands is an example in this regard. Stol et al (2008) provide an overview of the historic background with respect to efforts to request ISPs to filter traffic to block child pornographic material. In 2006, Parliament filed a motion to research such possibilities.…”

Undeniably the traditional neutral role of ISPs has come under increasing pressure. This is mainly a result of the requests placed on them which are becoming more diverse and far reaching. ISPs are called upon to lead the fight against botnets, combat digital piracy and child pornography, amongst other things. These requests placed upon ISPs are often impractical and sometimes even illegitimate. The primary research objective for this contribution is an analysis of a number of themes which invoke the involvement of ISPs. In particular, we want to make an inventory of the thematic justifications used for the requests. Basically, what interest are ISPs asked to defend and how do these relate to their role within the realm of internet governance? The outcome of this analysis is the development of a preliminary criterial framework for requests placed on ISPs.

“…This led to much criticism from the remainder of the ISP community. The debate died a slow death in the Netherlands, especially after legal research labeled the request to block as illegitimate (Stol et al 2008). The police provided a list of sites to be blocked by ISPs.…”

“…This is a surprisingly difficult question to answer as few blocking systems set explicit objectives (see e.g. Stol et al 2009). This (sometimes deliberate) vagueness reflects a tension between two competing factors -a political tendency to oversell what can be achieved and the technical realities which limit what can be done.…”

“…A study commissioned by the government found that this was unlawful and contrary to Article 10 ECHR in that it lacked any specific legal basis -ultimately forcing it to be abandoned (Stol et al 2008;Stol et al 2009). Remarkably, however, when this system was found to be illegal, the response of the Dutch government was not to provide a legal basis, but instead to try to further privatise blocking.…”

Internet Child Sex Offenders' Concerns about Online Security and their Use of Identity Protection Technologies: A Review

et al. 2014

View full text Add to dashboard Cite

The purpose of this article is to review what is known about the technologies that internet child sex offenders use to abuse or exploit children, offenders' attitudes towards online security and surveillance risk, and their use of identity protection tactics and technologies. The peer-reviewed literature on internet sex offenders published between 2000 and 2011 was surveyed. Internet child sex offenders use a mixture of new and old technologies to abuse children. Offenders' awareness of internet-related risk appears to exist along a continuum. A number of psychological and demographic factors may influence offenders' perceptions of online security risk and their willingness to take security precautions. A surprisingly large number of apprehended offenders in the time period examined by this review did not seem to use any technologies to disguise their identities. A major research programme into internet offenders' use of identity protection technologies, and their use of technologies in general, is needed.
