Via CNET: Eighty percent of Americans believe that bloggers should not have the right to publish personal information about other people, according to a survey conducted by Hostway. Moreover, 72 percent of those polled felt that such censorship should extend to information about celebrities, and 68 percent to elected and appointed government officials. Just over half of the 2,500 people surveyed said bloggers should be given the same free speech protections as journalists, and nearly 40 percent said they found blogs “less credible” than newspaper articles. Aside from pervasive skepticism about blogging, the survey also revealed that most Americans still aren’t citizens of the blogosphere. More than two-thirds of those polled had either never visited a blog or never heard of them before the survey.
