Hi,
<div><br>
</div>
<div>The recently launched Freedom of the Net report shows that online freedoms have declined globally for a sixth consecutive year in 2016: <a href="https://freedomhouse.org/report/freedom-net/freedom-net-2016" target="_blank">https://freedomhouse.org<wbr>/report/freedom-net/freedom-<wbr>net-2016</a></div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Worrying trends include increasing resort to content blocking and temporary network shut downs, targeting of encryption technologies in the name of surveillance, and jail-time of users (not only activists) for their posts and the content of their
messages.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>If you see this message today, you might be interested to follow the launch panel online at 5:30pm UTC, which will feature ISOC’s Vice President of Global Policy Development, Sally Wentworth: <a href="https://freedomhouse.org/event/special-launch-event-freedom-net-2016" target="_blank">https://freedomhous<wbr>e.org/event/special-launch-<wbr>event-freedom-net-2016</a></div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>As ISOC members, we would also like to invite you to <b>join us on 30th November at 2pm UTC</b> for a discussion about this and other issues with <a href="http://www.internetsociety.org/sanja-kelly" target="_blank">Sanja Kelly</a>, Director
of the Freedom on the Net Report (Freedom House). You can join the event on the day itself at the following link:
