Hello everybody
Some of you may know SXSW ("South-By-Southwest"), an annual
tech/music/film festival in Austin, TX. For next year's event, held in
March 2018, we have submitted a proposal for a panel that will discuss a
worrying trend: countries increasingly enforce their national laws globally
to take down content from the internet.
We believe that this trend causes harm to the internet and access to
knowledge. (See our blog posts about this problem in the context of a
case in Canada <https://blog.wikimedia.org/2017/07/20/google-v-equustek/>
and another one in France
<https://blog.wikimedia.org/2017/07/31/global-search-engine-delistings-petition/>.)
The panel will address how countries that enforce their national laws
globally online threaten to break the internet into pieces and hurt
fundamental rights. We're very happy to have secured the participation of
three fantastic speakers:
- Nani Jansen Reventlow (a Dutch freedom of expression litigator)
- Malavika Jayaram (a privacy researcher and the Executive Director of
the Digital Asia Hub)
- Carlos Affonso Souza (Director of the Institute for Technology and
Society, Rio)
Now, before the proposal is considered for the official program, it has to
go through a voting process. Everybody can vote (after creating an
account on the SXSW website):

We need your help to get as many votes as possible. Please vote for our
panel, help spread the word,

friends and networks.
THANK YOU!
Best,
