Science Editors Urge Nondisclosure Of Bioterror Info

Posted by timothy on from the gently-gently dept.

Jeraph Mason writes "According to this story on ABC news, science editors want to censor their publications because terrorists may use them. It's the same argument used to prevent security disclosures from being published." There's also coverage on the BBC and at The Washington Post.

    This has got to stop.

    Information must not be restricted.

    Economics, not science. If you choose to criticize someone, at least criticize properly and stop posting as an AC.
