A Public Statement Regarding
42. While the Net has enormous potential for interactivity,
participation, and rebuttal of falsehoods -- in short,
potential for free exchange in the marketplace of ideas --
the operators of the Zundel site have refused to take
advantage of these aspects. They avoid any form of
interaction with those who disagree with their views. As a
result, it is impossible to effectively rebut their
falsehoods. There is no sign that this pattern will change
in future, either with the Zundel site or with the other
major Holocaust-denial organizations and individuals on the
Internet.
43. The Internet, with regard to discussion of Holocaust-
denial between its proponents and opponents, has been no
more interactive and participatory a medium than print
publishing, and I have seen no indication that change will
be forthcoming.
