Hello, everyone! The third Global Advocacy quarterly newsletter <https://mailchi.mp/wikimedia/global-advocacy-newsletter-june-2024> is out!
In this issue we explained why the Foundation and Wikimedia affiliates published an open letter calling UN Member States to commit to protecting public interest spaces on the internet like the Wikimedia projects. We also shared: * Interviews where we've explained the role in Wikipedia's existence of Section 230, * How more than 20 years of lessons learned shape the public comments we submit to international institutions and governments in relation to AI, * Why we call to reform Section 702 of the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act (FISA) in the US, * And more! Sign up to the newsletter <https://mailchi.mp/wikimedia/global-advocacy-policy-newsletter> and please share it with your network, so we can provide more people across the world with quarterly updates on the work that the Wikimedia Foundation and communities are doing to protect the right to free and open knowledge for everyone, everywhere! Cheers, enjoy the reading, and have a nice day!
