| Description | Human Rights USA's response to a code of conduct issued by U.S. internet companies Google, Yahoo, and Microsoft, which, they claim, will better protect users in nations that restrict online free speech and privacy against government intrusion. Human Rights USA recognized the code as an important first step in acknowledging the impact that multinational internet companies can have on human rights. However, Human Rights USA noted the code's deficiencies in other respects, including its lack of guidance on how to enforce the code's principles.
