We supported this kind of movement .. If we believe in democracy ( of internet), not just by slogan let say that america is the forerunner (propaganda) of democracy in the world but in reality is represive (big brother, wire tapping)  in term of the strugle for internet privacy (human right) and freedom (democracy)

Subject: [NCSG-Discuss] The Day We Fight Back - February 11th



(apologize for the cross posting)



Dear NCSG community



The Snowden revelations have provided us with disturbing details and

confirmation of some of our worst fears about the NSA and its partners

spying practices.  Indeed, the NSA and its five allies in five

English-speaking countries have been building a global surveillance

infrastructure to “master the internet” and spy on the worlds

communications.



They are undermining basic encryption standards, the very backbone of

the Internet. It has collected the phone records of hundreds of millions

of people not suspected of any crime. It has swept up the electronic

communications of millions of people at home and abroad

indiscriminately, exploiting the digital technologies we use to connect

and inform.  They have secretive data sharing agreements outside of the

rule of law.



But we aren’t going to let the NSA and its five allies to ruin the

Internet. Inspired by the memory of Aaron, fueled by our victory against

SOPA and ACTA, we are joining the DayWeFightBack campaign to fight back

against mass surveillance at home and abroad.



To that end, we are asking you to join the campaign by:



1/ Sending an email to [log in to unmask] confirming your interest to

participate in this action;

2/ Letting us know what you can do in your own country.



I'm hoping to have your answer as soon as possible so we can take the

next steps.



3/ And if you have a huge newsletter database that can reach out to

thousands of individuals, please let us know that too. There might be

other ways where you can collaborate in the global campaign.



The SOPA and ACTA protests were successful because we all took part, as

a community. As Aaron put it, everybody "made themselves the hero of

their own story." We can set a date, but we need all of you, the users

of the Internet, to make it a movement.
