I am aware that the U.N. member states approved a treaty targeting cybercrime despite fierce opposition from human rights activists who have warned of potential surveillance dangers and also the committee for the treaty was set up, despite U.S. and European opposition

Considering the lack of transparency and Citizen participation, I am formally protesting this treaty/agreement until there is more transparency.

I agree with Nick Ashton-Hart who heads the Cybersecurity Tech Accord delegation to the treaty talks, representing more than 100 technology companies, including Microsoft and Meta. It is regrettable the committee adopted a convention without addressing many of the major flaws identified by civil society, the private sector, or even the U.N.\'s own human rights body. Wherever it is implemented the Convention will be harmful to the digital environment generally and human rights in particular.

For these reasons I am strongly objecting and calling on nations not to sign or implement the United Nations Convention Against Cybercrime

I denounce it as being far too broad in scope, it could amount to a global \"surveillance\" treaty and be used for repression.

Until this is debated, I object to everything!

Thank you
