We’re Doubling Down on Digital Rights. You Can, Too.

4 hours 33 minutes ago

Technology can uplift democracy, or it can be an authoritarian weapon. EFF is making sure it stays on the side of freedom. We’re defending encryption, exposing abusive surveillance tech, fighting government overreach, and standing up for free expression. But we need your help to protect digital rights—and right now, your donation will be matched dollar-for-dollar.

Power up!

Join EFF Today & Get a Free Donation Match

It’s Power Up Your Donation Week and all online contributions get an automatic match up to $302,700. Many thanks to the passionate EFF supporters who created this year's matching fund! The Power Up matching challenge offers a rare opportunity to double your impact on EFF’s legal, educational, advocacy, and free software work when it’s needed most. If you’ve been waiting for the right moment to give—this is it.

Digital rights are human rights. Governments have silenced online speech, corporations seek to exploit our data for profit, and police are deploying dystopian tools to track our every move. But the fight is far from over, with the support of EFF’s members.

How EFF is fighting back:

  • Creating tools to help people understand and protect their rights
  • Holding powerful institutions accountable in court when those rights are threatened
  • Pushing back against surveillance regimes through the justice system and in legislatures
  • Locking arms with attorneys, technologists, and defenders of digital freedom—including you

As an EFF member, you’ll have your choice of conversation-starting gear as a token of our thanks. Choose from stickers, EFF's 35th Anniversary Cityscape t-shirt, Motherboard hoodie, and more. You’ll also get a bonus Take Back CTRL-themed camera cover set with any member gift.

Will you donate today for privacy and free speech? Your gift will be matched for free, fueling the fight to stop tech from being a tyrant’s dream.

【25年JCJ賞受賞者スピーチ】信頼される報道をする 県警の不祥事隠ぺい追う=前田慎伍さん(鹿児島テレビ放送)

20 hours 37 minutes ago
 鹿児島県警の情報漏洩事件は、私たちが経験したことのない、ありえない状況の連続でした。本来は悪いことをした人を逮捕する警察が、悪事を取り締まる警察官を次々と逮捕するという異例の事態。その逮捕容疑も驚かされました。メディアに情報を流した、という私たちの日ごろの取材行為そのものを取り締まることができるという信じられないものでした。 さらに逮捕された元生活安全部長は、その動機を「本部長が警察職員の犯罪行為を隠ぺいしようとしたことを許せなかった」と組織のトップを名指しで糾弾しました。..
