I don't understand this. Of all the alphabet soup privacy groups out
there, EPIC is the one I consider most pro-privacy and anonymity other
than the ACLU itself. And EPIC knows the tech better, on the whole
(although the ACLU is quite clued-up too). It is true that EPIC is not
absolutist on SAFE -- and I'm not quite sure that they are right to give
even the inch they gave to get a mile -- but they're awfully good.
Rotenburg should be a near-hero to most readers of this list. Instead,
canabalism. Weird. Very weird.
That does it. When I get back to the US, I'm sending EPIC a donation.
