It remains a challenge to identify groups that are both (A) wealthy, (B) in need of anonymity technologies, and (C) morally acceptable to support. Freedom fighters don't fit all that well, in today's world.
Corporate Executives A, B, sort of C
The point is that virtually anyone in an OECD country will qualify at some time or another as to (A) and (B) and to *someone* as to (C). They are wealthy enough but they may not know they have a use for anonymity technologies ( though many use SSL daily without even knowing it). The beauty of a networked world is that anyone no matter how bizarre can find others who accept you and potentially know enough about these useful technologies to share them with you. Given the over-representation of libertarians in crypto, corporate execs are the least in need of such "connected" friends.
