when you "do something" what are you talking about?, can you give me a couple of examples please?

  Join an organisation and work actively with them (just joining is doing nothing). Contact MPs or other representatives[1]. Contact relevant bodies and pressure them. Give cash (making sure it gets used wisely). Offering your skills as a professional, where relevant. [1] Despite what people say, this works, if slowly.

    I personally feel powerless, or that it requires a huge amount of work to have a significant impact. If what you say is true, It could be very persuasive to inform about the expected impact a single person could have by just doing X. For example, describing how contacting MPs work, why would they care about what I say? giving a specific example, with rough estimates of number of people that need to contact or if it's more important the words chosen to achieve impact I would be interested in reading a good blog post describing the expected impact of activism in politics, especially on topics that I really care about, like privacy and freedom. I want to know what powers I have to change the things I care!

      If you care then just do something. I've said enough. It's cost me enough.
