If you don't like that GCHQ and the NSA can listen in on all your network activity, here is your chance to
Reset the Net.
Today, a coalition of thousands of Internet users, companies
and organizations launched a campaign for a day of action to “Reset The
Net” on June 5th, 2014, the anniversary of the first NSA surveillance
story revealed by whistleblower Edward Snowden. Tens of thousands of
internet activists, companies and organizations committed to preserving
free speech and basic rights on the Internet by taking steps to shutting
off the government’s mass surveillance capabilities.
