The Italian digital rights movement Scambioetico launches an important political campaign against the threats by European legislation against internet freedoms and network neutrality, i.e. Creatives 4NN:

“A few hours after the cancellation by the Telecoms Package amendment 138, REFF and Scambioetico movement start off to “Creatives for Net Neutrality – Creatives 4NN. The amendment was the last of the package under discussion in Bruxelles by these days, to protect the privacy and freedom of information and expression.

Recognizing cyberspace as the privileged place of contemporary conflict, “Creatives for NN” is aimed at the digital creative communities and individual users of the network – first of all users of file sharing, scapegoats of those laws – to create music, video , banners, plotting, poetry and comic strip on one or more themes to choose from:

- Telecoms Package – Net Neutrality – Mere Conduit – Amendment 138 of the Telecoms Package – Legalization of P2P without commercial purpose

The works received will be used to launch an international campaign which puts to the attention of European citizens and the public the urgency of action on these issues, promoting higher understanding and critical awareness

Creatives 4NN is an initiative created by Scambioetico movement with the support and collaboration of REFF.”
