Comment on Has ethernet become illegitimate? A librarian flipped out after spotting me using ethernet
coffeeClean@infosec.pub 6 months agoI have to say I didn’t downvote you as you’ve been civil and informative so far. But I’m not sure how to cite/quote from the UDHR as though it’s not law. For me it doesn’t matter. From where I sit, many nations signed the UDHR because it has principles worthy of being held in high regard. When the principles are violated outside the context of an enforcement body, the relevance of legal actionability is a separate matter. We are in a forum where we can say: here is a great idea for how to treat human beings with dignity and equality, and here that principle is being violated. There is no court in the loop. Finger wagging manifests from public support and that energy can make corrections in countless ways.
I guess I’m not grasping your thesis. Are you saying that if a solid national law was not breached, then it’s not worthwhile to spotlight acts that undermine the UDHR principles we hold in high regard?
