@eff we're sad to hear about the Electronic Frontier Alliance being closed. We were actually working on being stable enough to join as a new organization. Hoping to still get connected through your national campaigns and to connect with other organizations in Florida and the US.

Could you give more color as to why the program was closed?

Papers please, comrade ...

"Politicians and tech companies love using these terms interchangeably because it obscures what they're actually proposing. A law that requires "age assurance" sounds reasonable and moderate. But if that law defines age assurance as requiring government ID verification, it's not moderate at all—it's mass surveillance."

En los últimos años he donado a la #EFF, a #ElementaryOS, a la #FSF, a #veedeo, a #mastodon, a la instancia aus(.)social, a #KDE, a #Notable, a #Signal, a la #Wikipedia, he comprado aplicaciones y suscripciones por el mero hecho de que son los canales de ingresos para los proyectos (p.e., simplelogin), ¿he donado a #Fedora?, creo que sí pero lo volveré a hacer, y he tenido un presupuesto mensual para patreons y apoyos puntuales.

Casi seguro me olvido de más de dos.

Apoya 👏 Lo 👏 Que 👏 Usas 👏
