  That’s unfortunate.

  Technically this hasn’t been approved by the General Assembly yet, and the individual countries would need to ratify it. But press coverage suggest it’s a done deal.

  For the treaty to go into force, 40 nations have to ratify it.

  UN approves its first treaty targeting cybercrime

  In many places, ratifying a treaty requires parliament approval, so it’s not going to be quick. Talk to your representative once this treaty comes up in your parliement’s agenda.

  A primary purpose of the state is the violent control of people and things.

  An organization of states won’t be any different.
