What's going to happen in WCIT meet?
This December World's governments meet to decide the future of the internet which is called WCIT(World Conference on International Telecommunications) and is Organized by ITU(International Telecommunication Union). Internet is an open network, neither controlled by a single organization nor an individual. There are proposals to monitor and reduce the internet traffic for various reasons, increasing privacy on web, restricting open internet access, blocking some websites etc. If these proposals at WCIT are approved internet will become top-down regulated by ITU which will increase censorship and threaten innovation. To stop this add your voice to support free and open internet. Google Take Action
