History of the Electronic Frontier Foundation

Posted by michael on from the ancient-history-in-net-years dept.

Well, no one submitted it (guess no one reads the LA Times), but from the Red Rock Eater list we have a link to Freedom Fighters of the Digital World, a laudatory history of the EFF. Read it, live it, remember it when you think "I can't make a difference".

      Is that because most airport security 'specialists' are high school dropouts, and consequently, so are most Linux users?

    Yes, because changing your background colors always make the reader more sympathetic to a cause.

    For instance, just last week I changed my background to perriwinkle for the "Send the Webmaster Some Cash" cause, so the checks should start rolling in like hotcakes from all the awareness, right?
