Dear Elenara,
Has England gone completely mad? And we're not just talking about the rioters, the British government is considering shutting off Blackberry and Twitter during times of social unrest. Prime Minister Cameron, this is NOT Egypt, Syria, or Bahrain!
The Prime Minister says it would only be for those inciting violence or organising the riots, but on what basis is he going to decide that, using what intelligence, and according to whom? This proposal makes a mockery of the UK, and it must be halted before it goes any further.
The UK social networks are where the people have organized clean-ups after the riots, how family members informed each other they were safe, and helped the community look for perpetrators of violence. Shut this off, and you not only facilitate the danger, you endanger our fundamental right to freedom of speech. Violence should be punished where the law has been broken, but not at the expense of our fundamental rights.
Click here to tell the UK government NO to the shut down, and we will deliver your petition to the Prime Minister before the Parliament gets to discuss this proposal any further. Together we've stood proud as we fought for open communications across the Middle East and around the world, now let's ensure England, in this time of struggle, stands firm for what is right.

Se você não concordar, não posso me desculpar...

Com todo o perdão da palavra, eu sou um mistério pra mim. E eu suponho que me entender não seja uma questão de inteligência e sim de sentir, de entrar em contato. E nem eu me entendo, pois sou infinitamente maior que eu mesma, eu não me alcanço. Mas eu fui obrigada a me respeitar, pelo fato de não me entender. Qual palavra me representa? Uma coisa eu sei: eu não sou o meu nome. Meu nome pertence aos que me chamam.
