During the press conference, the general situation of information security on the Internet, the legislative field in the field of information security and the possibility of legal influence on Internet resources that conduct anti-Ukrainian propaganda, the technical capabilities of Internet providers in countering the information war, the balance between the right to free speech and information security of the country .
Today the most important thing is to understand that the very practice of shutting down resources without trial is very dangerous.
Freedom of expression does not mean the right to promote terrorism and incitement to war, but to publish credible facts and the right to analyze.
SBU can not break the law - it is an axiom. Having identified sites that propagate the war and support terrorism, the SBU is obliged to start criminal proceedings, conduct a state examination that will establish the existence of suspicions of the SBU, and go to court.
We must find a clear balance between issues of information security and freedom of speech. Without this, we can regulate the information space so that we will not know how to act after the war.
During the press conference, it was announced that preparations for the Round Table on blocking Internet resources will be held next week. We will follow and hope that an adequate decision will be made.
