Hi all,

We have published a new infographic advocating against the sale of .ORG:

Please share it widely!

We also wrote to US Congress requesting an investigation into ISOC's
proposed sale:

 This follows the Dec 3 statement by U.S. Senator Wyden announcing an
investigation via Tweet
<https://twitter.com/RonWyden/status/1201949340668964867?s=20> in response
to this Mashable
<https://mashable.com/article/dot-org-private-equity-sale-icann-update/>
article.
Quote: “This is extremely concerning. I'm looking into how this sale
happened, what can be done, and what it will mean for non-profits and
users.”

Onward!
Peter
