[governance] Anti-Censorship software from EU for Activists

[Baudouin SCHOMBE]

Hello all, congratulations Imran,
Since the beginning of this exchange, I have closely followed the various
discussions on this issue.
I can raise here the focus on the provision made by the European Union. In the
African reality today, it may be unthinkable. This shows well that digital
technology has no borders and we are all exposed to the same risks. It is
necessary to recognize the European Union is there to score a
véritbale challenge
and recognize the importance of stakeholders in the process of building a
true information society. There are no large and small citizens in other
words all cultures are equal regardless of the size of states.
