Happy to see the EFF leading this initiative for change, one of the few companies I would trust to do all they can and not to be commercially influenced or leveraged into accommodating the wishes of the NSA/US Govt.
I've always thought the EFF was driven by tin-foiled paranoia, but recent events are now showing that our worst big-brother fears that were initially inconceivable, are now from the limited info we're allowed to know, closer to reality.
The secret courts where "justice" and misinterpretations of the constitution are decided behind closed doors and suppressed, puts in-place about the most corrupt framework I can think of.
This is not the country I want to participate in, so I'm doing my bit and have just shown my support by donating to their cause: https://supporters.eff.org/donate https://supporters.eff.org/donate

- akama 13y agoI may have disagreements with their policy at times, but both the ACLU and the EFF seem to do an amazing amount of good work. I'm surprised that people perceive the EFF that way.
- kragen 13y agoThey've pretty much always been on the right side, except that during their stay in Washington they were too willing to compromise — with results like CALEA, which later got amended to remove the internet-exemption concessions the EFF had managed to extract. Anyone who thought they were "driven by tin-foiled paranoia" was just naïve.
