Greetings, CBS news has posted video of its report on this Sunday's CBS Evening News Weekend on the FreedomBox[1], a software movement I have been organizing to return control of digital communications to individuals and take it away from the corporations that spy on people as a way of life and the governments that use control over communications to stifle political organization and dissent. Given the ongoing events in the Middle East, and in particular the shutdown of Internet in Libya last week, I wanted to bring this story to your attention. The Foundation we built to support this movement has raised over $80,000 online through Kickstarter in the last 19 days[2], with 11 still to go in the first fund raising drive. More information on the project is available from the foundation's website: http://freedomboxfoundation.org Best wishes, Eben Moglen [1] http://www.cbsnews.com/video/watch/?id=7358702n [2] http://www.kickstarter.com/projects/721744279/push-the-freedombox-foundation... _______________________________________________ Freedombox-discuss mailing list Freedombox-discuss@lists.alioth.debian.org http://lists.alioth.debian.org/mailman/listinfo/freedombox-discuss ----- End forwarded message ----- -- Eugen* Leitl <a href="http://leitl.org">leitl</a> http://leitl.org ______________________________________________________________ ICBM: 48.07100, 11.36820 http://www.ativel.com http://postbiota.org 8B29F6BE: 099D 78BA 2FD3 B014 B08A 7779 75B0 2443 8B29 F6BE
