Prevent the Dutch government from sharing data with the US
Campaign content
The United States government had declared the Italian anti-fascist collective to be 'terrorist'. Autistic/Inventati provides digital services to different activist collectives, including queer rights, feminism, abortion rights and anti-militarism.
The US sent out a request for mutual legal assistance (MLA) to the Dutch government. The Dutch police seized the server which had Autistici's data and is going to send this data to the US.
Data of queer rights organisations is at risk of being handed over to the US, where a regime that is hostile to the queer community is in power. Lemkin Institute even states the US is engaging in a trans genocide.
Dear Sir/Madam,
As a queer community, we are deeply concerned about the transfer of sensitive data belonging to organizations focused on queer rights, trans rights, women’s rights, abortion access, and other related causes to the United States.
Various humanitarian organizations around the world have relied on the infrastructure provided by the Italian collective Autistici/Inventati (A/I). The A/I server has been seized by the police in connection with a mutual legal assistance request from the United States, and an image of the data stored on the server has been created.
The current administration in the United States is extremely hostile toward queer individuals, and transgender people in particular. The Lemkin Institute has even described the situation as a genocide against transgender people.
We urge that this data – which may include sensitive information belonging to humanitarian organizations, including those advocating for queer rights – not be handed over to the United States.

Geachte heer, mevrouw,
Als queer-gemeenschap maken wij ons ernstige zorgen over de overdracht van gevoelige gegevens van queerrechten, transrechten, vrouwenrechten, pro-abortus en andere organisaties aan de Verenigde Staten.
Wereldwijd zijn er diverse humanitaire organsiaties die gebruik maakten van de infrastructuur van het Italiaanse collectief Autistici/Inventati. De server van A/I is door de politie, in verband met een rechtshulpverzoek van de VS, in beslag genomen en er is een image van de data op de server gemaakt.
In de Verenigde Staten is een regime aan de macht dat uiterst vijandig is jegens queer en voornamelijk transgender personen. Het Lemkin Institute spreekt zelfs over een genocide tegen transgender personen.
Wij verzoeken dat deze data, die mogelijk gevoelige data van humanitaire organisaties, waaronder queerrechtenorganisaties, bevat niet met de Verenigde Staten wordt uitgeleverd.
Met vriendelijke groet,
