Gorla Praveen is a fellow member at Asia Pacific Regional Governance Forum (APrIGF) 2017- Youth Internet Governance Forum (yIGF) and member of Free Software Movement of India. As an Hacktivist of SWECHA and a FOSS community member he has been involved in developing and implementing Free and Open source software with an inspiration from Richard stallmen who was behind the development of GNU/Linux and its applications for the open world. His first involvement in Internet and protecting its virtues for the community started in supporting Net Neutrality where the Indian Government thought of implementing differential pricing which is against the Net Neutrality.
He is also an admin member of Openaccessbutton.org for making research more accessible for community, as everyone has right to access information of their own choice.
As a fellow at youth Internet Governance Forum (yIGF) - Asian Pacific regional Internet Governance Forum (APrIGF) 2017 he has proposed and supported the following Internet rights.
“ Privacy should not raise as right to fight for it, it has to be taken for granted and no one has right to authenticate it except you[Individual].”
"We want our Democracy of living.As a Civil citizen, I am More concerned about my basic Internet rights such as Net Neutrality, Individuality and privacy and no one has right to harm it, Including the governments as far as till I indulge others freedom."
“ Net Neutrality makes Internet free and open, in which it enables everyone to access and share information of their own choice. So, Net Neutrality is not negotiable, indeed it is need for everything from education to economic opportunities and from entertainment to raise agitations for basic rights.”
"Policies are to be framed in such a way to support open access across the academic institutions in order to drive scientific and technological invention. One such effort is encourage authors and publisher to voluntarily release their publications under Open access."
"Internet is not something which is created by single entity, it’s a wish, work and infrastructural development of every stakeholder, but unfortunately most of the Internet infrastructure is owned by private corporations rather than the civil society. Majority of Internet infrastructure is copyrighted. So it’s the responsibility of governing bodies to make the basic infrastructure which builds the Internet under the Open access and accessible to the public."
