Hey previous #RightsCon participants, Access Now is taking money from Amazon, Zoom, Google, and Facebook again for the upcoming conference #rightscon2022.
I think this qualifies as "putting Rightscon's mission at risk" (https://www.rightscon.org/fundingpolicy/), since those companies are a major structural reason that privacy is impossible for many whose rights are threatened. What do you think?
In order to participate in the #RightsCon annual conference for digital and online #humanRights, I have to agree to the Terms of Service of their third-party proprietary service, which demands the rights to do basically anything they want with my profile information, metadata, & whatever I write.
😩 8 weeks after letting them know, still no changes to these terms. Apparently protecting digital #humanRights just aren't that important to #RightsCon. 🕵🏽
