Council of Europe: Guide on Human Rights of Internet Users
Dear all, as I just got to know, the Ministerial Committee of the Council of Europe finally approved a *Guide on Human Rights of Internet Users* yesterday. This guide is aimed at improving awareness among Internet users while promoting rights and freedom on the Internet. It calls upon the private sector (business) to behave responsible towards users and to respect their rights. A copy of this guide you can find attached. Take it as a special gift for your upcoming and hopefully joyful Easter feast with my best wishes, Wolf EuroDIG Secretariat http://www.eurodig.org/ mobile +41 79 204 83 87 Skype: Wolf-Ludwig EURALO - ICANN's Regional At-Large Organisation http://euralo.org Profile on LinkedIn http://ch.linkedin.com/in/wolfludwig
Dear Wolf, many thanks for sharing this final/approved version of the Guide! It will be presented on the 29th of April in Tallin during the Freedom Online Coalition event. Council of Europe is going to dedicate a session to it, by bringing different stakeholders to share views on a number of aspects: - How to maximise the Guide's potential to help Internet users to exercise their human rights at the national level? - What action is needed by government agencies, the private sector and civil society to promote the Guide? - How can the Guide be embraced by Internet and online service providers in the exercise of their corporate social responsibilities? - How can we ensure that Internet users have the right to an effective remedy? I will be on the panel as well! Thanks once again for sharing it! Wishing everyone a fantastic Easter, love and peace to you and your families! As ever, Veronica On Fri, Apr 18, 2014 at 1:28 AM, Wolf Ludwig <wolf.ludwig@comunica-ch.net>wrote:
