FISo many funny reviews... It's so funny (and depressing) how many people here are calling Avaaz fake and coming up with all sort of crazy conspiracy theories. Just because their actions are not compatible with your nationalist or ideological framework doesn't mean they aren't doing good things. And not only good things, but things most people with empathy and common sense can and will agree with. They are not against particular countries or peoples but they do campaign against unethical practices and corrupt and draconian politics. That is important on every possible level. I do however agree that they send quite a lot of messages which is sometimes annoying. But that is a small price to pay for trying to make the world a better place.

GBJust sign important petitions I just sign the more important petitions , I rarely get spam and its only for important petitions that I'm happy to sign . They are like many charities that have one off donations and standing order donations that repeat every month , it's a bit too easy to press for repeat donations by mistake and it's quite hard to correct the mistake . Loss a star for that . Currently they have 1.4 Million signatures on a petition to Trial Putin for war crimes , I think that's pretty good .

PT"Secure" avaaz sells our email adresses to third parties!!! Used to sign petitions in "secure" avaaz, but my email box is now full of SPAM every day, starting from sexual email to all kinds of phishing and scams. I never gave permition for my email adress to be distributed. "Secure" Avaaz sells email adresses, and unsolicited emails from Meetic even come with a tittle: «through avaaz», which confirms where all the SPAM came from.

GBI think Avaaz potentially does good… I think Avaaz potentially does good work, but they seem to intentionally make it near impossible to contact them. They make it very easy to setup donations, but then now way to stop them. Their website, offers no contact information at all. Their help page say to click on the pink button below to contact us. There is no pink button. this it too big an organization to have such a poorly designed website if it is unintentional.

NLAvaaz makes sure that everyone is free… Avaaz makes sure that everyone is free to believe or support their campaigns at their own will. A harmless email is send to you. While for instance Greepeace keep on spamming by phone and even post once you donated. That means that they used my sponsored money for getting my money and not for the course I donated the money to. With Avaaz I never felt spammed. If you feel attacked by them it’s your own believe that keeps you from signing a petition.
