<DIV>Perhaps before you jump on such a bandwagon you should get the
recording of the event. You should get more than one person (witnesses)
account. Security anywhere is not prone to throw things on the floor.
Why is no copy of the poster posted?</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>It is not that I am skeptical of being used by Harvard and Oxford
publicists in order to get the word out or publish a paper or sell a
book. Keep in mind the ONI group is not representative of the persons
supposedly being wrongfully censored/filtered. In fact I see no
Tibetan or Chinese component to this Academic gathering of western
intelligencia. Advocacy is touted on the website but I see no
constituent that they are advocating for.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>In fact I believe there is a UN policy against advertising for the
sale of a commodity, service or goods at the events. A poster
promoting a book would be in violation of a very good rule.<BR><BR>---

<DIV dir=ltr>Dear Shahzad and friends in ONI, <BR><BR>It indeed is an
act of great concern on the commitment of the freedom of expression.
We stand united against this incident. Further, this should not create
an opportunity for others to hurt the good work that is happening at
IGF. So, +1 for the idea of registering the concern about the incident
with concerned stakeholders/authority. <BR><BR>In
Solidarity.<BR><BR>Hempal Shrestha<BR><BR><BR>

<DIV><FONT size=2 face=Arial>Dear Colleagues,</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2 face=Arial></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2 face=Arial>Did discuss this with quite a few
friends here and most of them agree for a joint action. How and what
I don't know but probably civil society representatives
speaking on the plenary can mention this appalling event and
register the concern. Just a suggestion and then I will really
suggest MAG members to take this up with IGF.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2 face=Arial></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2 face=Arial>But I would really urged on the caucus
members attending IGF to take this up strongly otherwise, such
things will keep happening more and more in future too.
