Subject: Help me get justice



Hi, I am Jimmy Wales, founder of Wikipedia, and if you care about
justice and the future of the Internet freedom, [2]Demand Progress and
I need your help.
This will only take a few seconds, but you can really help us change
things for the better.

Richard O'Dwyer is a 24 year old British student at Sheffield Hallam
University in the UK. He is facing extradition to the USA and up to
ten years in prison, for creating a website - TVShack.net - which linked
(similarly to a search-engine) to places to watch TV and movies
online.

O'Dwyer is not a US citizen, he's lived in the UK all his life, his
site was not hosted there, and most of his users were not from the US.
America is trying to prosecute a UK citizen for an alleged crime which
took place on UK soil.

The Internet as a whole must not tolerate censorship in response to
mere allegations of copyright infringement. As citizens we must stand
up for our rights online.

[3]Please click here to join me in demanding that British authorities
refuse to extradite O'Dwyer, and that US officials cease persecuting
him.

When operating his site, Richard O'Dwyer always did his best to play
by the rules: on the few occasions he received requests to remove
content from copyright holders, he complied. His site hosted links, not
copyrighted content, and these were submitted by users.

Copyright is an important institution, serving a beneficial moral and
economic purpose. But that does not mean that copyright can or
should be unlimited.

It does not mean that we should abandon time-honored moral and legal
principles to allow endless encroachments on our civil liberties in
the interests of the moguls of Hollywood.

This is but one of several recent attempts by the US government and
Hollywood to expand the definition of copyright infringement to
include those who simply link to other sites that are accused of housing
infringing content.

and Internet freedom.

Those who are being prosecuted face huge fines, and multiple years in
prison. These actions represent an unacceptable attack on Internet
freedom -- and one of questionable legality.

Congress should act to reign in US prosecutors and protect Internet
freedom -- and the UK should refuse to extradite O'Dwyer.

Richard O'Dwyer is the human face of the battle between the content
industry and the interests of the general public.

Earlier this year, in the fight against SOPA and PIPA, the public
won its first big victory. This could be our second.

This is why I am petitioning the UK's Home Secretary Theresa May to
stop the extradition of Richard O'Dwyer, and asking the United States
to end his prosecution.

[5]I hope you will join me -- please click here to stand up for
Richard O'Dwyer and Internet freedom.

Thanks.

- Jimmy Wales, Wikipedia founder
