EFF Action Alert -- Online Freedoms In The Balance

dan g sent in word of this EFF Action Alert about keeping your rights to freely communicate without government eavesdropping. It includes sample letters you might want to send to your elected representatives, if you'd like to remind them that you elected them, and that they represent you. As the alert points out, snail mail is too slow -- but email, faxes and phone calls are not.

email is NOT the right way...

[Masem]

Every time we encourage other /.'ers to send mail to their congresspersons, it's been pointed out that email is typically read by an aide, and has less of an impact than snail mail, faxing, or a phone call.

In the past, I've used the fax service provided by ACLU to contact my reps, and have gotten (most likely form letter) replies back from them, but it does tell me someone at least read it and understood my concerns.
