Important Notice related to cyber-rights.net accounts, 21 November, 2000: Please note that in the last 10 days or so, we witnessed a technical problem and during that time, the cyber-rights.net accounts that you have created did not work properly. While messages that you have sent through your accounts may have reached their destination, you probably did not receive any messages during that time from anyone. This was due to a problem related to DNS issues and there was a problem with database entries. The service is back to normal now. We apologize for the inconvenience due to the server problem and please note that this was a problem on the Cyber-Rights.Net end rather than on the Hush system.

Please contact help@cyber-rights.org  for any further problems in the future.
