      We've got some exciting news at GreenNet...

Along with six other ISPs from around the world, we've launched a legal
complaint calling for an end to GCHQ?s attacks and exploitation of
network infrastructure in order to unlawfully gain mass access to
private communications.

The complaint, filed by Riseup (US), GreenNet (UK), Greenhost
(Netherlands), Mango (Zimbabwe), Jinbonet (Korea), May First/People Link
(US), and the Chaos Computer Club (Germany), along with Privacy
International, is the first time that ISPs have taken collective action
against GCHQ.

Information about the case is available on our website
<https://www.gn.apc.org/network/news/legal-complaint-filed-end-gchq-attacks-isps>,
with more background from Privacy International
<%3Chttps://www.privacyinternational.org/press-releases/global-internet-service-and-communications-providers-file-complaint-to-end-gchq>.

Watch this space for more regular updates.

With best wishes from all at the GreenNet Collective,

Andrew, Cedric, Ed, Howard, Ian, Liz, Marek, and Sarah
