[Battlemesh] Open letter from European CNs to EU policy-makers

Félix Tréguer ft at laquadrature.net
Thu Mar 9 08:33:30 UTC 2017


The text (https://lqdn.co-ment.com/text/Rl42W44XAc6/view/) is now frozen
and the deadline for signatures has been pushed back to March 15th.
Please send your signatures to advocacy at netcommons.eu by then.

FYI, in the past days, we've received backing from EFF, EDRi and Article
19 as supporting organizations. But we're still missing many European
community networks...

Cheers,

Félix
