While most of us have personal or work-related blogs, it’s easy to take it allfor granted, now word is going around that a Saudi Information and Culture Ministry spokesperson has announced that all Saudi Arabian web publishers and online media (including blogs and forums) will need to be officially registered with the government. The move is claimed to reduce libel and defamation and isn’t intended to limit freedom of speech, though you can be sure that there will be folks who take a different view on the whole situation. How would you feel if the government required everybody to register their blogs before being able to operate it? Let us know via the comments section.
