[Chapter-delegates] FYI- Constance's blog post about the G20 - and the updated Internet Governance timeline

[Queen Mother]

Good evening Fellow ISOC Delegates,

I bring you sad news about the state of internet access in my home country
Cameroon.
I have sobbed uncontrollably for weeks as the govt of my country tortures
and mimes her citizens and recently has cut off the ability to send
financial support to our families through western union and has now cut off
the internet.

Please if you can read the articles below.

Thank you.
