I’m just back from the pharmacy. And I think I must share what just happened to raise awareness about #communicationrights:
There was a lady with #aphasia on the counter next to me trying to buy an electric heating pad. 🧵 1/10

WACC joins the call for #UNFCCC #COP30 to take binding action to uphold information integrity on climate change. Without accurate, trustworthy information, at the local level, forget about mobilizing public support for climate policy.

Logic of a circle

When a Company wants to say "no" for a while

All the while failing in their access guarantees

A month without comms is an eternity for some

An economic impairment unique to everyone reliant

A love defecit

Dangerous

In the face of genocide, there is no place for silence. While politicians dither, corporate hucksters profit & many stay silent, the slaughter in #Gaza goes on. Tragically, everyone’s hands are now permanently stained.

The internet is a digital lifeline for much of the world. Last year there were 105+ internet shutdowns. This is censorship & it subverts democracy. Tech governance must outlaw such denial of #CommunicationRights.
