The civil society Open Rights Group (ORG) reports that it has been joined by the UK Internet Service Providers Association (ISPA) and London Internet Exchange (LINX) in calling for Nominet, which handles the .uk registry of internet domain names, not to adopt a new proposal that could result in websites being taken down (suspended) from the internet without a court order.

The proposal, which we covered in some depth last week ， has many positive aspects and would only be targeted towards allegedly illegal websites; including those "directly involved in the criminal distribution of counterfeit goods". But understandably not everybody is happy with the idea of bypassing the right to a fair trial.
