<P><BIG>Hi,</BIG></P>
<P><BIG><B>€97 million per year. That’s how much money the tech industry spends
on lobbying on digital policy in Brussels.</B> [1] It’s worth it to them, so
they can keep a business model that puts profits over all else: privacy, truth,
even peace and democracy. [2]</BIG></P>
<P><BIG><B>Right now, they’re spending a lot of this money to make sure that the
Digital Services Act - a new EU law - won’t change how they do business.</B> [1]
[3] </BIG></P>
<P><BIG>But while they’re turning up the pressure on Members of the European
Parliament (MEPs) ahead of a crucial vote,<B> there are over a hundred
organisations and hundreds of thousands of people across Europe signing “The
People’s Declaration,” encouraging MEPs to stand strong and make rules to
control Big Tech.</B> [3]</BIG></P>
<P><BIG>Can you sign the petition, so MEPs can see how many of us want real
rules to limit big tech companies? <B>The only way we can stop big tech’s big
pockets is with pressure from millions of people like us, all together.
</B></BIG></P>
