Hello Everyone,

Deputy UK Prime Minister Nick Clegg has opened a website where people from the UK can suggest "ideas" for laws that should be repealed/changed.

http://yourfreedom.hmg.gov.uk/

There are already some ideas there about pulling out of ACTA, Repealing the Digital Economy Act, DRM, Encryption etc..

I encourage everyone to rate the relevant ideas highly, as well as submit your own. It is not often where we get a chance like this!

I look forward to everyone's reply

Thanks

Jonathan

I'm copying Jonathan Tripathy's email to fsfeurope's discussion
email list to the more specific fsfe-uk list. I've had a bit of a
go, but the more the merrier!
