The Telecoms Package that has so far been pushed very hard through the European Parliament is now very close to the vote and the time is high for action.

If you haven’t been following the debate, visit the following places and get updated:

IPTegrity.com – The Telecoms Package – (about this organization)

La Quadrature Du Net – The Telecoms Package: Out of the shadows, into the light – (about this organization)

FFII.ORG – Call for action on the Telecom package – (about this organization)

What we all need to do now is to show the MEPs that the citizens of the European Union does not want this kind of legislation.

The best and fastest way to do this is to (1) send an e-mail to your own countrys MEP in your own language and then (2) send one to the other MEPs either in english or their own language if your skills are sufficient.

Do not send mass e-mails over and over again. Those get deleted and is not going to get read!

What we need to do is bring forth our concern over this legislation (the Telecoms package) and our concern that it might mean arbitrary filtering of the internet, abrupt disconnection of alleged file-sharers and restrictions of the information freedom on the internet.

The contact details of all the MEPs can be found HERE!

Another thing that you can do is to sign this petition: Throttle The Package!

So get moving people, let’s keep our internet free and unfiltered!

And always remember,   Your voice counts!
