"the E-Commerce Directive, part of the European
telecommunications regulatory framework, establishes exemptions
from liability for mere conduit, caching, and hosting operations,
which are seen as additional safeguards for the equal treatment of data
traffic.But see also the critique of Horten (2011) on recent amendments."

Iptegrity in brief

 

Iptegrity.com is the website of Dr Monica Horten. I’ve been analysing analysing digital policy since 2008. Way back then, I identified how issues around rights can influence Internet policy, and that has been a thread throughout all of my research. I hold a PhD in EU Communications Policy from the University of Westminster (2010), and a Post-graduate diploma in marketing.   I’ve served as an independent expert on the Council of Europe  Committee on Internet Freedoms, and was involved in a capacity building project in Moldova, Georgia, and Ukraine. I am currently (from June 2022)  Policy Manager - Freedom of Expression, with the Open Rights Group.
