Group: LibrePlanet Rapid Responders/Targets
Contents
Help us comment on news articles and blogs. This is especially important when the issues we care about are either being left-out of the article and when we disagree with the article completely. When commenting, it is helpful to direct people toward articles on FSF.org and DefectiveByDesign.org.
How To
How to use this page:
- Please create a new section or subsection for each news worthy target you would like to add.
- Please add a note about why they are currently news worthy; linking to any relevant FSF or Defective by Design news articles or actions.
- Please add a signature and timestamp --~~~~ to each new entry or suggestion.
- When a new target is added, use the **News-target** tag, for example, {{#set:News-target=Sony}}
Try to order this page and each individual article in order from newest to oldest. If you can not comment on the article directly, perhaps see if there is a reddit page for the article and then comment on that; but, you needn't submit a new article to Reddit if we don't actually want to promote the story!
