很高兴看到2msmom在坚持读，我看你最近没来，还以为我上次给你砖让你不高兴了呢。看来没事，我继续给砖， ：）
As in the dictatorships of the past, governments are targeting independent thinkers who use these tools. In the demonstrations that followed Iran’s presidential elections, grainy cell phone footage of a young woman’s bloody murder provided a digital indictment of the government’s brutality(这个r没怎么听到，注意圆唇）. We’ve seen reports that when Iranians living overseas（这个听着象ei音） posted online criticism of their nation’s leaders, their family members in Iran were singled out for retribution. And despite an intense campaign（这个是ei，我也发不好） of government intimidation, brave citizen journalists in Iran continue using technology to show the world and their fellow citizens what is happening inside their country. In speaking out on behalf of their own human rights, the Iranian people have inspired the world. And their courage is redefining how technology is used to spread truth and expose injustice.
Now, all societies recognize that free expression has its limits. We do not tolerate those who incite others to violence, such as the agents of al-Qaida who are, at this moment, using the internet to promote the mass murder of innocent people across the world. And hate（有点象hit） speech that targets individuals on the basis of their race, religion, ethnicity, gender, or sexual orientation is reprehensible. It is an unfortunate fact that these issues are both growing challenges that the international community must confront together. And we must also grapple with the issue of anonymous speech. Those who use the internet to recruit（太短了好象） terrorists or distribute stolen（感觉象solen） intellectual property cannot divorce their online actions from their real world identities. But these challenges must not become an excuse for governments to systematically violate the rights and privacy of those who use the internet for peaceful political purposes.
