[liberationtech] Fwd: Avaaz in "grave danger" due to GMail spam filters

[Jillian C. York]

Key paragraph:

"So while I am told that you have norms about collaboration and engagement
among you, I regret that we can't follow them. Hope you'll forgive us and
judge us by the quality of our work over time. Good luck to you with yours."

In a later phone call that I had with Ricken, he basically said that Avaaz
"doesn't have time to engage" with its allies and the greater community. As
a rule, I don't support any person or group that isn't interested in
working together as a community.
