Stop school children being finger printed at school without parents’
permission

non-violent protest.
Reform the libel laws – corporations would have to show damage and prove
malice or recklessness to mount a successful court challenge against
journalists.

emaila dn internet use and including on line games and facebook.

data base known as the interception modernisation program to store details
of phone calls, text messages, emails and internet use.
