<br><br>The farcical illusion of "multistakeholder" discussions around<br>
"Internet governance" must be denounced! For the last 15 years those<br>
sterile discussions led nowhere, with no concrete action ever emerging..<br>
<br>
In the meantime, technology as a whole has been turned into a<br>
terrifying machine for surveillance, control and oppression. The very<br>
same "stakeholders" seen in IGFs and such, by their active<br>
collaboration with NSA and its public and private partners, massively<br>
violated our trust and our privacy.<br>
<br>
In 3 days will be held in SaoPaulo the NETmundial forum. Will it be<br>
one more occurence of the "multistakeholder" farce?<br>
<br>
Governments have a moral obligation and a duty to protect their<br>
citizens' fundamental freedoms against aggressions by public and<br>
private entities. We expect them to protect the decentralized<br>
architecture of a Free Internet as a common good.<br>
<br>
<br>
This is why we put up: <a href="http://netmundial.net" target="_blank">http://netmundial.net</a><br>
<br>
(yes, the idiots left this domain unregistered for us to use! hinhin)<br>
<br>
<br>
With a manifesto that we encourage you to sign and spread in your<br>
networks (Can be signed directly through<br>
<a href="https://oiga.me/campaigns/end-global-surveillance-and-protect-the-free-internet" target="_blank">https://oiga.me/campaigns/end-global-surveillance-and-protect-the-free-internet</a><br>
)<br>
<br>
This manifesto will help us as an analysis matrix for the outcome of<br>
NetMundial: Either governments follow our demands and take concrete<br>
actions, or we will know that they are simply cooperating with this<br>
global effort of attacking our freedoms and a free Internet.<br>
<br>
Please help us spread this message, so an alternative voice emerges<br>
from NETmundial. It is OUR Internet!! #OurNetMundial<br>
