How about some kind of non-violent mass protest, it worked for sopa? A million geeks have quite a lot of power, if its focused at one point in time.
What would be the most effective form of protest?
Examples :
Everyone call random phone number on their mobile phones at exactly the same time "Hi, Im your friendly geek, just wanted you to know this conversation is being monitored"
Everyone use TOR for one week.
Everyone tweet "You are being spied on by the US government" at the same time ?
Basically the protest needs to drive home the massive swell of opposition on the issue - so that both sides of the house see it as a political survival necessity to reduce state sponsored surveillance.
- Myrmornis 13y agoHow about creating a website which allows us all to find a pen-friend in Iran, Gaza, Yemen, Afghanistan or wherever, and we send regular (e.g. weekly) communications to that person. It would be a good thing to do anyway.
