Google’s chairman Eric Schmidt, who visited Burma on March 23, said he is concerned about the future of the Internet in Burma. He wrote in a blog post on Monday that the ongoing violence could lead to a new era of online censorship. Schmidt wrote: “We are entering a dangerous period for the Internet in Myanmar. What happens when a religious group falsely claims damages from others … will the Army be sent in, too? The country cannot even agree on a press freedoms law for the newspapers, and freedom of political speech is a one year old concept.”
