Hi Digital Rights Supporter,
Millions of people around the world use Privacy Badger, a free browser extension that I work on at EFF. Privacy Badger blocks hidden trackers that twist your web browsing into a commodity for Big Tech, advertisers, scammers, and data brokers.
But did you know that we’re trying to solve an issue that’s even bigger than creepy ads and user profiling? You can help.
Online tracking isn't just unethical. It’s dangerous. The government would ordinarily need a warrant to collect sensitive information about you, like your location over time. So instead, they exploit widespread commercial surveillance and weak privacy protections that allow data brokers to package your data and brazenly sell it to law enforcement agencies including the FBI, CBP, and ICE.
With your help, EFF is fighting back. Our team is working to enact stronger laws to uphold your privacy. We’re advocating for consumer rights in the courts. We’re investigating these technologies. And we’re cutting off surveillance advertising at the source with tools like Privacy Badger for everyone. You can support this work as an EFF member.
End Mass Surveillance
Privacy is a human right because it gives you a fundamental measure of security and freedom. We owe it to ourselves to fight the mass surveillance used to control and intimidate people. Let’s do this.
Join EFF and pick up a new Privacy Badger Crewneck sweatshirt, available for a limited time. The embroidered Privacy Badger mascot appears above Traditional Chinese for "privacy” because human rights are universal.
You can also get a set of puffy stickers as a token of thanks. Our little Ghostie protects privacy in Arabic, English, Japanese, Persian, Russian, and Spanish.
Claw Back! This year’s member t-shirt is hot off the press featuring an orange cat swatting at the street-level surveillance equipment multiplying in our communities. You might empathize with him, but there’s a better way. Let’s end the law enforcement contracts, harmful practices, and twisted logic that enable mass spying in the first place.
You can support our mission for technology in the public interest today. Join the movement and become an EFF member.
For your freedom online,
Lena Cohen
EFF Staff Technologist
