Censorship Alert: No Mandatory Internet IDS

Have you heard? Commerce Secretary Gary Locke just announced that he's developing virtual ID cards for Internet users -- and they could pose a severe threat to our privacy! The program's called the "National Strategy for Trusted Identities in Cyberspace” and the draft proposal indicates thatwe'd be forced to use the IDs for any online transactions with the government, and for online interactions with businesses that use them. 
If the system is fully implemented you'll have one centralized Internet identity, making it even easier to track your online activity.  The government shouldn't be forcing Americans to use Internet ID cards: Will you take a stand for Internet privacy by signing on at right?

PETITION TO COMMERCE SECRETARY GARY LOCKE: The government doesn't have the right to force Americans to use Internet ID cards:  You need to make sure the program maintains Internet users' rights to privacy and anonymity.

Censorship Alert: Urge Congress to reject the Protect IP Act

We're forcing them to take our concerns seriously: Demand Progress members have sent more than 50,000 emails to Senators to urge them to oppose the Internet Blacklist Bill (the PROTECT IP Act).  Now we're hearing back from them, and one thing is clear: Our emails are compelling Senators to start thinking hard about Internet freedom.  



PROTECT IP would give the government the power to force Internet service providers, search engines, and other "information location tools" to block users' access to sites that have been accused of copyright infringement -- the initiation of a China-style censorship regime here in the United States.
Senators are writing back to let us know that our emails are making them think twice before rubber-stamping PROTECT IP.  For instance, Oregon's Jeff Merkley is telling Demand Progress members:

I have heard from many Oregonians on both sides of this issue – those who support providing U.S. agencies with greater authority to shut down websites, and those who are worried that the legislation could result in Internet censorship. Thanks to your letter and the letters of fellow Oregonians, I have asked my staff to take a closer look into this legislation.

Censorship Alert: Apple want create kill switch.


Dear Steve Jobs, 
As you know, smartphones are extensions of ourselves: They are incredibly powerful tools for communication, education, political expression, community organizing and plain fun.
That's why I'm concerned that Apple wants to patent a sensor that would detect when people are using their phone cameras -- and give corporations the power to shut them down. 
And as we’ve seen in Egypt and elsewhere, the images and videos we take with our phones can be powerful forms of free speech. That's why governments and businesses that feel threatened by the democratizing nature of mobile devices are doing what they can to control how we use them.
If this tool fell into the hands of repressive regimes or malicious corporations, it would give tyrants and companies the power to silence one of the most critical forms of free expression. 
I urge you to immediately stop plans to develop cellphone censorship technology.
