Hillary Clinton demands a free internet

So Hillary Clinton spent an hour demanding a free and open internet for all citizens of the world, obviously aimed at the Chinese/Google debacle. http://link.brightcove.com/services/player/bcpid1705667530?bctid=62730021001

But i wonder if this is going to change how the USA enforces its own policies on not only its citizens but also other countries who do not follow the laws 'as the USA see it'.

Does Hillary Clinton also propose that the USA should stop blocking Antigua online gambling and accept the WTO ruling of 2007.

Will the USA finally accept other countries can make their own sovereign laws and the USA doesnt "own the internet".

I doubt it - i guess it's only another example of the usa telling those third world asians to follow the usa "way of white life" or else.


Cheers,
