[Final draft for final comments] Letter to Pres. Rousseff Re: [bestbits] [governance] Dilma Rousseff's speech at UN

Thu Sep 26 07:45:31 EDT 2013

2. Stress the importance of the timely adoption of the Brazilian Draft Bill
of Internet Rights (Marco Civil da Internet) in a way that upholds these
principles and endorses the innovative and democratic process in which it
was conceived.
