Last week we opened limited tickets to our big campaigning event to ORG paying supporters only. We’ve now released the remaining *limited free tickets* to the general public so please register nowhttp://stopsnooperscharter.eventbrite.com/before they are all gone.
*What is it? *
Stop the Snoopers' Charter http://stopsnooperscharter.eventbrite.com/ is a series of talks and workshops to explain the Communications Data Bill. The Bill has been debated in the select committee over the last few months with civil liberties groups, internet service providers and spooks giving evidence. The media has taken various sides to the storyhttp://www.thesundaytimes.co.uk/sto/news/uk_news/Society/article1162048.eceand the Government is claiming that mass surveillance is necessary to capture terrorists and paedophiles.
This is a great opportunity to learn the specifics in the draft and make your own mind up about the bill that everyone is talking about. It’s also a chance to introduce your friends to the work of ORG and learn the practical implications of the CDB.
