| 7 | Together with global Internet service and communications providers the Chaos Computer Club files complaint to end GCHQ attacks. | ||

| 10 | |||
| 11 | Seven Internet service and communications providers from around the | ||
| 12 | world filed a legal complaint today, calling for an end to GCHQ’s | ||
| 13 | attacking and exploitation of network infrastructure in order to | ||
| 14 | unlawfully gain access to potentially millions of people’s private | ||
| 15 | communications. | ||
| 16 | |||
| 17 | The complaint, filed by Riseup (US), GreenNet (UK), Greenhost | ||
| 18 | (Netherlands), Mango (Zimbabwe), Jinbonet (Korea), May First/People Link | ||
| 19 | (US), and the Chaos Computer Club (Germany), along with Privacy | ||
| 20 | International, is the first time that internet and communication | ||
| 21 | providers have taken collective action against GCHQ’s targeting, | ||
| 22 | attacking and exploitation of networks maintaining communications | ||
| 23 | infrastructure. | ||
| 24 | |||
| 25 | Lodged today in the Investigatory Powers Tribunal, the claimants assert | ||
| 26 | that GCHQ’s attacks on providers are not only illegal, but are | ||
| 27 | destructive, undermine the goodwill the organisations rely on, and | ||
| 28 | damage the trust in security and privacy that makes the Internet such a | ||
| 29 | crucial tool of communication and empowerment. The claimants are | ||
| 30 | demanding an end to such exploitation of Internet and communication | ||
| 31 | services, the targeting of their systems administrators and protections | ||
| 32 | for their users whose rights may have been infringed. | ||
