Email updates on news, actions,and events in your area.DEEPLINKS BLOGShare ItBut whatever the final result of this election, we’ll continue to have work to do. During the Clinton era, the government unveiled a vision of the Internet dominated by copyright holders, fought to outlaw strong encryption (but then surrendered), and passed draconian Internet censorship bills. The George W. Bush administration liberalized encryption regulations, but pushed through the Patriot Act, and dangerously expanded NSA spying and government secrecy. Obama voted against NSA reform as a Senator, and as President, further expanded the U.S.’s surveillance apparatus, but ultimately also stopped several secret programs. The current Trump administration has launched an assault on crucial protections for online speech and innovation, as well as encryption, and continues to defend mass surveillance in court.We fought all of these efforts, holding firm to our core value: Technology must work for the user. No matter what party is in power in the White House or Congress, or who is on the Supreme Court, EFF will work to ensure that when you use technology, and when you go online, your rights go with you. We won your right to encrypt, successfully advocated for an uncensored Internet, and began the long battle to ensure your devices weren’t locked-down and spied on by copyright lobby decree. We exposed the domestic mass surveillance program under Bush, and fought back in the courts and in Congress under Bush, Obama, and Trump.Start a Monthly or Annual Recurring ContributionStart a Monthly or Annual Recurring ContributionShare ItShare It
