F.A.T. in Mexican Senate

When the Mexican government announced a plan to tax internet connections, along with cigarettes, alcohol and junk food, F.A.T. fellow Geraldine Juarez and an army of twitteros unleashed the power of the hashtag. “#internetnecesario” was all over the news, and climaxed with this live-broadcasted testimony to the Mexican senate. Geraldine tells it like it is – “internet no es papitas”! (the Internet is not Doritos)
