La Oficina para las Instituciones Democráticas y Derechos Humanos de la OSCE (Organismo para la Seguridad y Cooperación en Europa), estará presente este sábado en Madrid para vigilar que se respetan los derechos de reunión y manifestación durante la movilización en la que confluirán las diferentes Marchas de la Dignidad, que llevan semanas dirigiéndose a la capital para protestar contra el paro, la precariedad y exigir que no se pague la deuda pública. Ernesto Sarabia, miembro de la organización de la acogida a las marchas en Madrid, hizo esta petición hace semanas y el organismo internacional contestó afirmativamente, además de instarles a mantener una reunión el próximo martes 24 en la que los representantes de la movilización les entregarán un informe sobre el desarrollo de la protesta.

The UN human rights committee unanimously passed a “right to privacy” resolution sponsored by Germany and Brazil that protects the right to privacy against illegal surveillance, following revelations about NSA spying.
The resolution states that surveillance and data interception by
governments and companies "may violate or abuse human
rights.”
This is the first document that establishes protection of human
rights in the digital sphere, Brazil's Ambassador Antonio de
Aguiar Patriota told the AP. It "establishes for the first
time that human rights should prevail irrespective of the medium,
and therefore need to be protected online and offline,”
Patriota said.
