Staff harassing activists at Cop27 meeting

Activists in the Cop27 meeting in Egypt report that the event is full of "staff" that blatantly converge on them to listen to their conversations, harass them, or interfere with them.

The word "activism" seems to be their wake-up word. The intimidation of activists is so strong that the meeting is almost useless, except for showing the world how repressive Egypt is.

The World Summit on the Information Society, part II, took place in Tunis, and was heavily repressed. The dictator's men tried to keep us from meeting any Tunisians who were not approved conference attendees.

Meanwhile, this year's meeting has 626 lobbyists for fossil fuel companies, up 25% from last year.
