U.S. Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton, in her speech at the Newseum in Washington, D.C., addressed the sate of global Internet freedom. She touched on subjects such as data networks enhancing the effectiveness of disaster relief efforts, using the Web to make political voices heard in oppressive regimes, and even the ways the freedom of expression guaranteed online can be abused by terrorists and hate groups.

At the end of the speech, though, the most burning question still remains: How can governments strike a balance between preventing the proliferation of evil and granting uncensored freedom of expression?
