As far as I know, there has been work ongoing on this front internationally by the Pirate Parties for 2 years by now. I don't know anything about the details how it actually went to work, but all I know that there's been work done on this problem for 2 years at the very least.<div>

<div><span>(1a. You may want to <b>establish
that your ITU representative actually is not already of the
same opinion as you.</b> The United States ambassador to the
EU and the European COmmission have already come out in favour
of the line which is advocated by us as pirates (namely that the
ITU is not an appropriate forum for the type of discussions that
have been raised). Are all member states following the
COmmission? We don't know. Sweden will be following the US.)</span></div>
<div><span>>>>I understand
that every ITU-meber/organization has it's own independent voice
which we can influence.<br>
</span></div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div><span>2. <b> Be real pain in
the ass</b>: Call them on the phone, send official emails.
Send communication requests: as a pirate party, as your other
organization, as an Internet user/person. Arrange
meetings/talks/panels in person.</span></div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div><span>3. <b>Organize public
panel</b> - the more mainstream media you go - the merrier.</span></div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div><span>3.1. <b>OR hijack already
arranged mainstream public panel</b><br>
</span></div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div><span>4. <b> Demand - in public
- clear and sharp promise of your representative: to
__oppose__ ITU intention</b> to be authority over Interent.</span></div>
<div><span> Bind your
representative to the promise made in public by all legal means
available to you. (that they _will_ OPPOSE ITU INTENTIONS).</span></div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div><span>**All this will be
materialized by voting in WCIT-12 conference this December in
Dubai. Every country has one vote. There is no veto on this
panel. We have to make and safeguard right votes in our own
countries and therefore save open and libre Internet.</span></div>

<div><span>real dangers: "small"
countries are in fact puppets of big ones. the battle will boil
down to this field. if Internet manage to bring right voices on
the table, safeguarded from the corporate vultures, -
open&free communication will win. every action counts. </span></div>
