Mozilla, EFF, Reddit And 83 Other Organizations Launch StopWatching.Us
May I ask to expand this request to all the advertisers, and other consumer trackers? Google, Facebook, 99.9% of all Internet consumer stuff basically? Plus Banks, Credit Card companies, TelCos?The fact that PRISM is so cheap (20mil) is only possible because the NSA does not need to actually snoop at all - it is just taking data from Google, etc. that they already collected on us (which for some fucking reason is ok if it is a commercial entity).So if I ever get slammed for using AdBlock, I'll cite this NSA bruhaha and the stopwatching.us initiative.Or, as the genius Onion put it:
