GILC News Alert
The GILC News Alert is the newsletter of the Global Internet Liberty Campaign, an international coalition of organizations working to protect and enhance online civil liberties and human rights.
GILC takes up issues that are concerned with free speech, privacy, cryptography and access in any country. The organisation advocates against censorship and indirect (for example commerical) means of restricting access or free speech. GILC looks to ensure that personal information is not used for unrelated purposes, and challenges descrimination on the basis of race, colour, sex, language, religion, political or other opinion, national or social origin, property, birth or other status. Its founding members include: the American Civil Liberties Union, the Electronic Privacy Information Center, Human Rights Watch, the Internet Society, Privacy International, the Association des Utilisateurs d'Internet, and other civil liberties and human rights organizations.
The website brings truly international coverage of internet rights issues, and anyone can subscribe to a monthly email newsletter - the GILC NEWS ALERT - which will bring you news from around the world relating to these issues.
