[交流] 【求助】一篇关于互联网方面英语文章的翻译

虫友们谁能帮忙翻译一下下面这段关于互联网的文章,必重谢




                              Freedom and Anonymity
Fear of cyber attacks should not lead us to destroy what makes the Internet special

Attacks on Internet sites and infrastructure, and the compromise of secure information, pose  a  particularly  tricky  problem  because  it  is  usually  impossible  to  trace  an  attack back   to   its   instigator.   This   "attribution   problem“   is   so   troublesome   that   some law-enforcement experts have called for a wholesale reworking of Internet architecture and protocols, such that every packet of data is engraved with the identity of its source. The  idea  is  to  make  punishment,  and  therefore  deterrence,  possible.  Unfortunately, such   a   reworking   would   also   threaten  what   makes   the   Internet   special,   both technologically and socially.
The Internet works thanks to loose but trusted connections among its many constituent parts,  with  easy  entry  and  exit  for  new  Internet  service  providers  or  new  forms  of expanding access. That is not the case with, say, mobile phones, in which the telecom operator  can  tell  which  phone  placed what  call  and to  whom  the  phone  is  registered. Establishing this level of identity on  the Internet is no small task, as we have seen with authoritarian regimes that have sought to limit anonymity. It would involve eliminating free and open Wi-Fi access points and other ways of sharing  connections. Terminals in libraries and cybercafes would have to have verified sign-in rosters. Or worse,  Internet access    would    have    to    be predicated    on    providing   a    special    ID    akin    to   a government-issued driver?s license… perhaps in the form of a USB key. No key, no bits. To  be  sure,  this  step  would  not  stop  criminals  and  states  wanting  to  act  covertly  but would  force  them  to  invest  much   more  to  achieve  the  anonymity  that  comes  so naturally today. The price to the rest of us would also be high. The Internet?s distinct configuration may have  made  cyberattacks  easy  to  launch,  but  it  has  also  kindled  the  flame  of  freedom.
One repressive  state after another  has been  caught between  the  promise of  economic advancement through abundant Internet access and the fear of empowering its citizens to  express   themselves   freely.   An   Internet   without   the   attribution   problem   would introduce a new issue: citizens could be readily identified and punished for their political activities.
We  need  better  options  for  securing  the  Internet.  Instead  of  looking  primarily  for top-down government  intervention, we can enlist  the operators  and users themselves. For  example,  Web  site  operators  could  opt  into  a  system  of  "mirror  as  you  link. “Whenever  their servers render a page, they cache  the  contents of  the link. Then, when someone tries to get to the site and can′t, he or she can go back to the original linking site  and  digitally  say,  "I  can′t  get  that  link  you  just  directed  me  to.  Would  you  mind telling me what was there?“
