[bestbits] SIGN on: Open Letter to Paraguayan Congress Against Data Retention (48 hours)

[Javier Pallero]

(APOLOGIES FOR CROSS POSTING)

Dear all,
As Katitza said, it is very important to our friends in Paraguay to stop
this bill at the Senate hearing next Thursday. Please, make sure to sign
and share it.

Another way of helping them is by asking all your followers to tweet using
the hashtag #pyrawebs from now on until the vote happens. In case you want
to share your concerns with the bill sponsors, these are their twitter
accounts:

Here is some updated contextual information in English and Spanish you may
also share, including an advocacy video with Frank La Rue alerting about
inminent human rights violations arising from this bill.
