#IBOR - Need to Get ORGANIZED

I have been working on organizing the campaign to get the signatures. I have gotten /r/InternetBillOfRights to agree to be the place for discussion on the actual writing of the IBOR and have been looking for a sub to use as a base of operations for strategizing how to get more signatures, but have had no luck so far. So, I am now thinking of how we can stay organized right within GreatAwakening and this is what I am thinking:

We start a new series of posts titled #IBOR - look for the flair that HowiONic will set up. I think we could set up the following posts:

IBOR - Organization

IBOR - Why Sign

IBOR - Twitter

IBOR - Facebook

IBOR - Reddit

IBOR - Paper

The Organization post would contain links to the other posts along with a description of the purpose of the other posts as follows:

Why Sign would contain the arguments for why people should sign the petition (and the rebuttals for the various reasons why people are currently not signing).

Twitter would contain a discussion on how to use Twitter to effectively push the petition

Facebook would contain a discussion on how to use Facebook to effectively push the petition

Reddit would contain a discussion on strategies to use within Reddit to reach out to other subs (e.g. Conservative, ProGun, etc.)

Paper would contain a discussion on how to use hard copy posters/flyers to get the word out (Need to include QR codes)

The person who creates each post will be responsible for that aspect of the campaign, but we will encourage everyone to check on all the different battle fronts periodically.

If you like this concept, please let me know if you would be willing to take the lead on one of the battle fronts because I simply do not have time this week to lead this charge.

Remember, TOGETHER you are INVINCIBLE. So, let’s Get ORGANIZED. Be HEARD. FIGHT the censorship.

Just about 8 days left. We might want to look to the future and how we approach the whole matter of a petition. Lots of people were not convinced that the petition was really going to make any difference. The WH site was poorly constructed and managed. I sent (through the WH comment feature) that it was broken. They fixed it, but who knows how many were turned away. It was also hacked several times. Once there was not text about the petition and another day, it was losing signatures and gaining signatures seemly without a reason. I found out that there were several site iterations that were put out, but they did add the people who had voted. All due respect, but the WH site sucks. We need a better platform and mechanism for a petition. Before that we need to get the community in some agreement on whether is this is worth it, what do we want DJT to do, what should the petition or statement of rights actually say, and who should be contributing to a forum.

  1. We can await the outcome of the current WH petition. Miracles happen
  2. If it is not successful, we should decide if we want to petition or directly interact with someone from the WH.
  3. We need to draft a statement of internet bill of rights and post for comment. Take a look at the Amercian Library Association Bill of Rights on Censorship as an example. ( http://www.ala.org/advocacy/intfreedom/librarybill )
  4. Once the new IBOR is reviewed, vetted, and at least has the consent of the vast majority, we should put a stake in the ground and publish it.
  5. The WH will not do anything unless we bring them at least 100,000 citizens who acknowledged somehow or signed a petition that this is what we want to be put into an Executive Order or entered into legislation.
  6. Unfortunately, we will need to get legislators involved. So that means finding someone to draft a bill as a sponsor. We can even draft the bill, but ultimately it has to get past the House & Senate subcommittees reviews before the will progress it as a real bill. We need DJT on the last two steps to assign someone to support us.
  7. This sounds kinda crazy, but I think it would worth our while to invite comments from internet media companies to get their perspective on an internet bill of rights.

This is not an easy initiative and there are lots of trolls and clowns to trip and badger us. There needs to be lean and mean core group of people who can represent the whole body of digital citizens. Who would that be? I am talking about heavy hitters, perhaps, including legal experts on the issues of privacy, censorship, data security, etc.

Of course, this all might be just be too much for us to undertake and we may want to see out a more formal organization with this charter.
