It has been brought to our attention that some Internet Service Providers have listed the term fighthst.com in spam lists and in some cases the emails are not getting to their intended recipients. This may or may not be an intentional act to interfere with our campaign but it is a harmful act nonetheless. The legalities of it will be something for the Courts and Elections BC to determine at a later time. We are not sure how many other combinations of our name have been listed with other Internet Service Providers as Spam but are now on alert and we feel that everyone should be on alert for this type of Censorship as well.
The best way to make sure you are not missing emails about this campaign or about any link your friends may be trying to email to you, is to go to your internet spam settings and make sure that “automatically delete spam” is not selected. You will then receive emails with “potential spam” in the heading and you will then be able to send the email to your Service Provider and let them know that this is not spam and that they should remove the listing. As an added precaution, you should also ask your Internet Service Provider for a complete list of words, phrases and website addresses that they are sniffing for in your private and confidential emails. Remember that nothing on the internet or in email is considered private or confidential anymore.
We are in a time crunch to gather and inform our canvassers on the steps we need to take to succeed in this initiative. We don’t have time to fight the EVIL DOERS that are stopping you from receiving information. Checking back to this website frequently is the best way to keep informed and be sure that you have not missed any emails due to Censorship. Once this campaign is over, perhaps Censorship should be closely investigated by every one of us and our laws reviewed and changed to protect our privacy and our rights.
If you would like to send emails to your friends informing them of this website and the information within it, you will need to write out the domain name like “www dot fight hst dot com” Tell them to replace the word dot with an actual dot and remove the spaces. This may seem extreme but it is the only way to be sure the website address is not being Censored in the emails that you send. If you wish to include the FighHST name, seperate the term and it should be safe enough. Fight HST is made up of 2 safe words or if you want to be even safer call it Fight The HST.
If you have questions about this post, feel free to post them in the comments area and I will attempt to answer every one of them.
