Google’s public policy blog is promoting its CEO recent speech on “Internet Freedom.” Curiously, Mr. Schmidt’s failed to address the privacy concerns related to his search business (especially crucial given the pending Doubleclick deal. Isn’t privacy such an Internet Freedom, Mr. Schmidt?). Here’s a link to it. It’s worth listening to. But it didn’t really provide the dramatic call for democratic communications the country and world requires. It’s really about making the world’s policy regime safe for Google’s interactive marketing plans–especially mobile.

Here’s an excerpt about the speech on the Google policy blog, entitled:

Eric Schmidt at PFF: what Internet freedom means to us

In the policy arena, Eric offered three specific calls to action. First, he said we need to defend freedom of speech as more speech comes online – and give teeth to the issue by pressing governments to classify censorship as a trade barrier. Second, we need to continue working toward universal broadband access, by government collaborating with industry and making sure that networks remain content neutral. And third, he called on government to be more transparent to its citizens – citing as an example our Sitemaps partnership with the federal government and five state governments.
