What positions should WM adopt (Mandate Q2)

Asparuh re: censorship. We are 100% against censorship *of content*. We are against the *censorship of access* but there are considerable local and cultural differences of interpretation here that we should be very sensitive to before forcing Western values on the rest of the world.

Asparuh re: net neutrality: we are against private sector or government interference with an open internet. Good to take a very strong stand here.

Asparuh rasied a new topic about which Wikimedia might take an advocacy position: which is universal translation and integration of effort across culture/languages. (A digital divide issue.)
