Recognizing Partners, Looking to the Future

As we near the close of the first-ever Choose Privacy Week, we are tremendously grateful to the many individuals and organizations that have contributed to its success. Please allow us this blog post to recognize those on the front lines of key privacy issues today. We are honored to call many of these folks our partners, allies, colleagues, and friends.

The Electronic Frontier Foundation is a first line of defense when digital rights are threatened, and has been since 1990.
The Center for Democracy and Technology works vigilantly to keep the Internet open, innovative, and free.
The American Civil Liberties Union promotes uses of technology to enhance privacy and opposes those that undermine our freedoms.
Privacy Rights Clearinghouse empowers consumers with tips to control their own personal information and advocates for consumer privacy rights.
The Electronic Privacy Information Center consistently focuses public attention on vital privacy issues today.

We have also had opportunities to discuss privacy issues with thinkers like Cory Doctorow, Neil Gaiman, Hal Niedzviecki, Geoffrey Stone, and others. It has been a pleasure to work with them and others in the worlds of technology, academia, civil liberties, consumer rights, and libraries to advance our thinking and advocacy on today’s most complex privacy issues. As Choose Privacy Week 2010 draws to a close, we look forward to our future work with these groups and individuals as the struggle for greater privacy rights and awareness continues.
