INTERNET INSIDER April 17th, 2015

Members of Internet Advice Tips , This week, OpenMedia gave our community a sneak preview of an upcoming global network to Save the Link! Around the world, Big Media conglomerates and out-of-touch governments are pushing rules that threaten our ability to link to content around the web. Imagine a map without roads. Now imagine the Internet without links. This is exactly the type of future we could be facing – and that’s why we’re pushing back at SaveTheLink.org. Will you join us? We’re also midway through our #StopC51 Week of Education, and tens of thousands of Canadians have been speaking up to stop this reckless, dangerous, and ineffective legislation. We’ve seen letters appear in local newspapers across the country, and we’ve been inundating MP’s offices with messages and phone calls. We’ll be ramping up the pressure in the final days before the crucial House of Commons vote - stay in the loop at StopC51.ca Onwards! Big Media conglomerates and out-of-touch world governments want to harm free expression online. We're pushing back at https://SaveTheLink.org/.
