We've just launched a project asking anyone with a website to help spread the word on the rally:

https://github.com/tfrce/project-megaphone


I'd love to add this to my website but I run a health website and the implications of it (aka their personal health information they submit not really being fully protected by things like SSL [1] from surveillance) would startle my users and scare away sign-ups.

Balancing communicating necessary information vs running a business is a tough one.

[1] We use perfect-foward secrecy but not all browsers support that.


Definitely $30,000 dollars well spent, I cant wait to see all of the much needed change this will bring to mine and others lives. /s


Where do I go to donate to your project? Want to make sure my money's going to the most effective place possible!


The greatest part about my project is I can also do absolutely nothing, and I can do it for $30,000 dollars less than these guys. That's an infinite return on nothingness! My kickstarter to stop the big bad government from searching through our amazon shopping carts just reached it's goal of $0! Thanks guy's! We really taught them a lesson about collecting all that data we throw out in the open and give to multi-billion dollar corporations. Safety be damned! Plus the NSA is useless, look how few attacks we have had since 9/11, obviously the NSA has nothing to do with that. The government is out to get us people, this entity made up of hundreds of thousands of positions, changing and revolving all the time definitely has an organized long term goal set up to spy on everything we do, because it's not like they are also american citizens watching out for themselves as well. The government is a single entity that wants power just because, they don't care about observing and foiling terrorist plots, they just want to control you because big brother.

We should do nothing. That'll work for sure.


Well nothing needs to be done.


Nothing needs to be done about overreaching state surveillance? Are there any historical examples of states that didn't use state surveillance to quash dissent?


Ask for Nothing and you shall receive.


Completely content with that.
