Abstract
With the national security agenda here to stay, this article looks at the central yet contradictory role played in it by the communications industry. As well as the legislative framework, it canvasses issues and responses of telecommunications and internet providers, service engines, as well as those involved in journalism, broadcasting and content provision. The article argues that the communications industry is far from a neutral actor in the national security regime.
