The conciliation of the EU "Telecoms Package" will begin in a few days.
27 Members of the European Parliament and representatives of the
executive branches of the 27 Member States will negotiate the text in
closed-doors meetings. The outcome of these discussions will shape the
future of Internet users' freedoms in Europe. EU citizens must ask their
representatives to adopt firm positions to protect their citizens'
fundamental rights and defend Net neutrality.

.../...

EU citizens can act now by inquiring after their ministers in charge7 on
these two specific questions:

    * Why should the EU accept infringement on Net neutrality voted in
second reading in the Telecoms Package and how do they intend to correct
them?

    * Why should EU renounce to the protection of EU citizens'
fundamental rights voted twice by the European Parliament in "amendment
138"?


We wll soon send and publish our letter to our ministers, along with an
english translation.

Let's keep the pressure high! The recent news in the US are very
encouraging!
