International Parliamentary Union (IPU) will discuss and adopt a Resolution addressing among other things Threats to out Digital Privacy, titled Democracy in the Digital era & the Threat to Privacy & Individual Freedoms at the Inter-parliamentary Union’s General Assembly in Geneva 21st of October, sponsored by the Icelandic Digital Rights Activist and Parliamentarian Birgitta Jonsdottir and South Korean Parliamentarian Ha Jin Jhun.
All 166 countries attending the IPU can send in suggestions to change this resolution. I hope those will offer suggestions to strengthen this resolution, not to weaken it, for surely those attending the IPU should be inspired to strengthen the foundations of democracy itself during these times of transformation.
