"What a year it's been. We've seen technology unfortunately misused to supercharge the threats facing democracy: dystopian surveillance, attacks on encryption, and government censorship. These aren't abstract dangers. They're happening now, to real people, in real time. EFF's lawyers, technologists, and activists are pushing back. But we need you in this fight. JOIN EFF TODAY! MAKE A YEAR END DONATION-HELP EFF UNLOCK CHALLENGE GRANTS!"
"The past year confirmed how urgently we need technologies that protect us, not surveil us. EFF has been in the fight every step of the way, thanks to support from people like you. This year alone EFF: Launched a resource hub to help users understand and fight back against age verification laws. Challenged San Jose's unconstitutional license plate reader database in court. Sued demanding answers when ICE spotting apps were mysteriously taken offline. Launched Rayhunter to detect cell site simulators."
EFF mobilizes lawyers, technologists, and activists to defend digital freedoms against surveillance, attacks on encryption, and government censorship. The organization advances legal challenges, develops technical tools, and engages in advocacy to protect free expression, privacy, and secure communication. Recent actions include launching a resource hub to fight age verification laws, challenging San Jose's license plate reader database, suing for answers about ICE spotting app removals, launching Rayhunter to detect cell site simulators, and opposing the EU proposal that would break encryption. Donors who contribute before the end of 2025 can help unlock up to $26,200 in challenge grants.
