Dear Omar, Thank you for sharing the legal advances in Brazil. I am sure it is no coincidence that you are in Brasilia when the legislation makes progress! I hope you will continue to let us know the status of this bill -- and what "new generation rights" mean. Great progress! Best, Kathy
I just arrived from a seminar in Brasilia, at the House of the Representatives. We discussed (again) the cibercrime bill - considered too complex and vague. This discussion is taking years, but in the very same day another bill was proposed, the so called "Marco Civil da Internet" - to regularize and to propose civil (ciber)rights. We do understand we first need a bill to generate and to ensure some new generation rights, not to restrict them or inhibit net neutrality, innovation, culture and freedom in general.
And tonight in Sao Paulo, Lawrence Lessig, Gilberto Gil and others talked about free culture, Creative Commons, etc in a free event.
I think (and I hope) a revolution was started and it is growing.
Tired but happy regards,
Omar _______________________________________________ Rt4-whois mailing list Rt4-whois@icann.org https://mm.icann.org/mailman/listinfo/rt4-whois
