InternetNZ (Internet New Zealand Inc) has released a position paper rejecting centralised internet filtering as an acceptable approach for New Zealand.
The paper is a response to the Department of Internal Affairs' Digital Child Exploitation Filtering System, InternetNZ says.
The paper calls on the department to conduct a thorough study of the extent of access of child abuse material on the internet and the best ways of addressing it.
"InternetNZ supports a safe environment for people online, and absolutely deplores the availability and use of child abuse material," says InternetNZ policy director Jordan Carter.
