[IRP] Blogpost: Is-facebook-a-human-right? Egypt-and-Tunisia-transform-social-media.

Jaco,
 
Wouldn't your position be that virtual personalities should have human
rights...
 
I'm not sure I would go that far but I would argue that virtual
representations/manifestations of individuals should be seen as having the
same rights as those individuals in their physical form (I think this is
what I was trying to say in the blogpost)--although I would be very
interested to hear what others have to say about the possible implications
of that position...

Almost..., it is not FB or Twitter a human right, it is virtual personality
a human right!.

Something a bit provocative from my blog.

Comments/critique sincerely welcomed...

Best,
