> On April 26th the World Intellectual Property Organization (WIPO)
> organizes a global day of celebration for patents and intellectual

> scandal. Because patents are being used to keep affordable life-saving
> medication from India or Brazil away from millions of dying people with
> aids in developing countries. Since the advent of life-prolonging HIV
> therapy in 1996, 20 million people have died of aids, with access only
> to patented, grossly overpriced medicines. 95% of people with aids
> still don't have access to the
> affordable generic HIV drugs.
>
> On Monday April 26 between 4 and 5 pm European Continental Time (10-11
> am Eastern Seaboard Time), take simple action against WIPO by taking
> part in a 1-hour "netstrike" (blocking WIPO's website).
>
> It's a very simple action to take part in and you can keep working
> while you do it. It only takes a computer, a standard web browser and a
> cable or ADSL internet connection.
