ИСТИНА

Any act of information exchange involves at least two persons: the one who transmits information, and the one who receives it; sometimes there's also the owner of the communication media. Basing on this fact, we can give a definition for freedom of information exchange: any persons are free to communicate any information, provided that both the receiver and the transmitter agree to do so, the the communication media owner allows the media to be used for the exchange, and noone of them has any obligations under previously made deals that contradict with the exchange. Any violation of this rule can be considered to be violence, and we will call such kinds of violence an information violence, which can me clearly demarked into three primary classes: (1) transmission of information without the recipient's consent; this includes, for example, personal insults, unsolicited advertizement (including spam), etc.; (2) receiving information without its holder's consent, e.g., espionage, privacy violations, etc.; (3) unauthorized interference of third parties into a consensual information exchange, such as censorship. Adopting the notion of information violence we can strictly (and consistently) define what information exchange is acceptable and what is not, as any inacceptable information flow appears to be the information violence. This provides a consistent basis for information exchange legality principles.
