Hello,

The World Conference on International Telecommunications (WCIT 2012) of the
ITU is to be held during December 3 - 14 in Dubai  to review the current
International Telecommunication Regulations (ITRs).

The ITU has regulated telegraphs, telephones since 1865, coordinates the
shared global use of radio spectrum and has a role to play in the
assignment of satellite orbits.

Now the ITU seeks to include Internet Governance in its sphere of control.
There are several proposals to be discussed at the WCIT in a closed
setting, to bring about adverse changes to the way the Internet works.

A simplified infographic, as presented by equaltimes.org is posted at the
Chapter Blog at page http://isocindiachennai.org/?p=1317 Please take a look
at this infographic, share it with your colleagues and contacts. You could
also express your concern by signing a petition at

Please share both the blog link and the link to the petition, or more

abroad. It could make a difference if widely shared.

Thank you.
