[bestbits] Re: [governance] Brazil's Marco Civil approved by Chamber of Deputies!!

[Marilia Maciel]

Great victory of every individual and organization that participated in
this process since the public consultation! And we share this victory with
all our friends around the world who supported this fight, who wrote texts,
analysis and who gave us space to talk about Marco Civil and keep it on the
agenda all though the years. THANK YOU!

This was a huge a very important chapter of the battle. Now comes the
Senate! :)
