Hi friends,

As a result of the escalating impact of COVID-19 (coronavirus), this year's Internet Freedom Festival (IFF) has been canceled.

Here is the IFF's statement on the cancellation & next steps: https://internetfreedomfestival.org/wiki/index.php/Cancellation_of_the_2020_...

If you got a free IFF ticket, you don't need to do anything. If you purchased an IFF ticket, you can ask for a full refund, or you can consider donating it to the IFF Diversity & Inclusion Fund for 2021.

If your IFF session was selected, you will be offered the option to present in 2021.

In the meanwhile, if there are measurement discussions you would like to have, we invite you to facilitate them as part of the monthly OONI Community Meetings which usually take place at 14:00 UTC every last Tuesday of the month on the OONI Slack channel: https://slack.ooni.org/

You can propose topics to discuss for the next OONI Community Meetings here: https://pad.riseup.net/p/ooni-community-meeting-keep

Hope to see many of you at IFF 2021!

Until then, stay safe... and see you on the internet!

Warm regards,

Maria.
