>> The issue of WiFi access is extremely important, I travelled a lot, I
saw the demand to picture yourself in Hungary to get access to Internet at
railway station. No problems.
>> The problem is with censorship. It was great to participate in EuroDIG
this year in Berlin. It was a disaster not to be heard at all. Few minutes
ago I did receive information that German ISP Hetzner Online AG apologized
for their attempts to block Ukrainian media Glavcom on demand of Russian
censorship.
>> On October 2 2014 we will organize our traditional Forum in Kiev
(Ukraine). This time we will change its title - from Media for information
society to Media for information society and against war.
>> We have very limited budget. We can't pay for participations of a lot of
foreign experts. We would be happy to see all of you in Kiev. At least on
remote basis))))
