Hey John,
It’s like we called it. Lawmakers in Michigan *just* introduced a vile1 bill2 to ban VPNs—following authoritarian regimes from Russia3 to Myanmar4 to censor dissent and community while surveilling Internet users. It’s time to scare politicians the hell off of messing with online safety and freedom tools like VPNs. Will you join the defend VPNs day of action today?
JOIN THE DAY OF ACTION
Everyone the world over can sign our petition. We know, it’s a petition—but this is part of a larger game plan and first we need the numbers to back us up. If you’re in the US, you can also take action to call your lawmakers with our easy call tool. It’ll only take 5 minutes to do both these things, can we count on you to take action now?
TAKE ACTION
If you’re real into this cause (and the vibe is that a lot of you are), it’d also be great if you would let others know this is happening and ask them to take action too. DefendVPNs.com is where you wanna send them.
Let’s yell about it before it’s too late!
Lia and all of us at Fight
