Time-critical: Sign the petition against a new data retention law

If you're a German citizen and haven't signed the petition against a new data retention law, then sign it immediately, please. There are approximately [UPDATE]five twenty-five*[/UPDATE] hours left (after that you can still sign the petition until 2011-10-06, but it won't help in the endeavour to cause a public meeting of the petition committee). If you know somebody, who hasn't signed, get the word to them.

[UPDATE]* According to netzpolitik.org the deadline for triggering a public meeting of the petition committee was moved to 2011-09-14 23:59 (CEST), which gives you another 24 hours to sign the petition in time (or get others to sign it). Please use that time![/UPDATE]

[UPDATE2 (2011-09-14)]netzpolitik.org moved the entry about the deadline change to a new blog post, thus I've updated the link above. If you need instructions for the signing process, you can watch „Endspurt: Petition gegen die Vorratsdatenspeicherung“.[/UPDATE2 (2011-09-14)]

[UPDATE3 (2011-09-14)]We did it! Keep it up![/UPDATE3 (2011-09-14)]

Over 50,000 signed the petition against a new data retention law – keep it up!

For a few minutes now, we've managed to mobilize over 50,000 people to sign the petition against a new data retention law. Thank you!

If you haven't signed the petition yet or know people who haven't signed the petition yet, you've got still time to make your voice heard (until 2011-10-06). Maybe we manage to surpass the "Zensursula" petition.

Old phone with a text in German, saying, that data about phone calls is retained
