Dell & HP: Don't Do China's Dirty Work

Dell & HP: Don't Do China's Dirty Work

The Issue

http://actionnetwork.org/campaign/stopgreendam

Tell American computer giants HP and Dell to refuse to implement China's new restriction: http://actionnetwork.org/campaign/stopgreendam/

"Green Dam" will not only allow the Chinese government to further censor information about Tibet, human rights, and anything else Beijing deems 'politically sensitive,' but it could also be used to spy on and control PC users in Tibet and China.

The move has prompted a global outcry from technology trade associations, Chinese internet users, internet freedom advocates, human rights groups, and Chinese lawyers.

Dell and HP are currently in discussions with the Chinese government over the implications of this new software.

Please send a letter to Dell CEO, Michael Dell, and HP CEO, Mark Hurd, urging them to uphold the principles of free speech and internet freedom by refusing to install "Green Dam" on computers headed to the Chinese market.

If you are a Dell or HP user, please make sure to mention it in your letter: http://actionnetwork.org/campaign/stopgreendam

By standing up to China, Dell and HP can help quash this repressive restriction once and for all.

Thank you for everything you do to help make a difference for Tibet.
