Make the World a Little Brighter
Donate your credits to charity!
By now, it should come as news to no one that our freedom and privacy on the Internet are tenuous concepts at best, and that our past complacency toward encroachment on either must be met with strengthened resolve. The fight against illegal mass surveillance is just the timeliest of many battles taken on by the Electronic Frontier Foundation on our behalf, but its other central issues are just as germane in our age of ubiquitous electronics. I hope this concern strikes a chord with the Listia community, and that they will contribute in support of the EFF as it champions free speech, privacy, innovation, and consumer rights for the general public.

As a proud father of two wonderful kids, I chose Save the Children as the beneficiaries of this charity are someone's children. The subject of disaster or harm of any kind somehow reaching our children is one that seems almost taboo, maybe for superstitious reasons. I think this is because even the mere thought of our kids being in these horrific situations is incomprehensible and impossible to digest. It's not fair that the most innocent and undeserving of harm are sometimes put in these unthinkable situations. To me, this charity means hope for kids no different than my own.
