How the freedom of speech is at risk and how you can help
Hello, fellow steemians,
I want you to stop for a minute and read this, as this is a subject to all of us. especially we, that are living in this crypto-world.
This community has approximately 65 million visitors per month, this means if we all stick together we can actually change something.
I mean, if we could get 10% of our entire community sign against it, that would make 6.5 million signatures (at the time of this post we're barely at 900k)
In particular, the European government wants to pass a bill that allows an algorithm to check our uploads. I personally think that letting this happen is the first step of taking away the freedom of speech. Something our ancestors have fought for. I find it ironic that wars are made because people in countries that are led by dictators need "freedom" but we in a "democracy" have to fight it in another way.
So how can you help?
Thanks to that most of us live in a democracy, we have the right to vote against it and if we're enough people - we will be heard! So let's start a chain reaction and let's all sign the petition against article 13.
It takes literally 1 minute to signup. Every signature counts, especially yours ;-)

Every single action counts!
Thank you!
everywhere freedom of speech is not accepted
Sadly it seems to be getting worse rather than better. As an American, I can hardly even bare to look at my President. His behavior is appalling and so many are treating it as 'normal' or somehow revolutionary. We are in a mess! A perpetual series of knee jerk reactions without considering the implications to society.
They are too busy thinking about war and oil
Amen! So true...
This is ridiculous. It seems like once a month governments are trying something new to undermine the internet and it's open nature. The worse part is that these guys generally have no inkling of an understanding of how any of it works. That makes them even more dangerous!
thanks for supporting! feel free to resteem and share it everywhere else. the more people we reach, the better! As long as we can fight, we should.
cheers!
thanks for sharing this petition with us! the government should definitely NOT be privy to this info, at all!
Thank you for your support! :)
I agree
