Global Rx: A new treaty to treat Surveillance addiction!

UN Special Rapporteur on Privacy, Joseph Cannataci, UN Secretary General Ban Ki-moon, and all UN member states:

Powerful governments are still working to weaken our privacy rights and collect data on all of us, all of the time. A global problem requires a global response: an international treaty, convention, or legal instrument to ensure our right to privacy, the right to free and secure communications, and the protection of whistleblowers who act in defense of privacy and democracy in our public policy.

Global Rx: A new treaty to treat Surveillance addiction!
Mass surveillance must be like heroin: highly addictive. Because despite majorities worldwide in opposition, spymasters in countries large and small are still working overtime to vacuum up our emails, phone calls, private chats and personal photos.

This week we have a huge chance to push back, by joining Edward Snowden, and key journalists and privacy activists, to roll out a powerful antidote -- an international treaty setting a global legal framework to protect us from this Orwellian invasion of our privacy.

Right now Government leaders are gathering right for the UN General Assembly, and this week Snowden will introduce this bold new idea -- and the NSAs worst nightmare -- in New York. Avaaz members worldwide can sign on now to endorse it; we're only going to win global protections from snooping if we can show the whole world demands it!
