It's Michelle here, stepping out from behind the puppet for a moment.

From the Internet to the iPod, technologies are transforming our society and empowering us as speakers, citizens, creators, and consumers. When our freedoms in the networked world come under attack, the Electronic Frontier Foundation (EFF) is the first line of defense. EFF broke new ground when it was founded in 1990 — well before the Internet was on most people's radar — and continues to confront cutting-edge issues defending free speech, privacy, innovation, and consumer rights today. From the beginning, EFF has championed the public interest in every critical battle affecting digital rights.

I need to stress that I am only speaking for myself here, (which is why I am putting this on a character blog) but I remember this organization helping defend Star Trek fan websites from Viacom in '96. If you feel the need to go somewhere and do something about the recent situation or just want to know the law, the EFF is helping people in spots of trouble similar to Chris. I just signed up for the newsletter and took a look around the site.

Thanks all,

M

Did you want to post this to OOC? It came out under Donna's personal journal.

No. I posted this to my character blog because I only want to speak only for myself here and not add to the traffic on the OOCs about this issue while it's being worked on. (Also, there's what I feel I can say as a mod and what I can say as a private party.) Believe me when I say both mod teams are working on getting the content back and that's our focus. I did the same thing on the Marvel side with Tony's journal.
