Sarkozy says internet freedom will lead to anarchy
"In an extraordinary attack on internet freedoms, the French president said that governments must be included in regulating the virtual world.
He claimed that excluding officials took 'the risk of democratic chaos and hence anarchy.'
'Now that the internet is an integral part of most people's lives, it would be contradictory to exclude governments from this huge forum,' he said.
'Nobody could nor should forget that these governments are the only legitimate representatives of the will of the people in our democracies.
'To forget this is to take the risk of democratic chaos and hence anarchy.'
Mr Sarkozy''s comments were addressed to an audience of leading multimedia executives who had gathered in Paris for a conference ahead of the G8 summit."
