Coal, Stockings, and Consumers

This year has been a whirlwind of attacks on online rights and the public domain. The big gorillas on defense are the EFF, Public Knowledge, and the up-and-coming IPac. To show our gratitude for their valiant efforts, we put together a page to encourage end of year donations. And for every $100 donated, we’re pledging to send a lump of coal to the RIAA and MPAA: Take a look and be generous.

In related organization news, Consumers Union (publisher of Consumer Reports) has just launched a solid new site about media consolidation, called Hear Us Now, and they’re linking to some of our pages. The Hear Us Now page also has some good copyright info that they’ve suggested we integrate into Copyright Curriculum (it’s a wiki, so please jump in).
