Dont ask for your privacy. Take it back. Governments have abused the Internet and twisted it beyond recognition. Now, were taking it back. Whether youre an Internet user, a developer, or you run a website, sign up to get instructions for how you can help us Reset the Net, and take the first steps toward making mass surveillance impossible. This is our moment. Its time to realize our power. Governments and monopolies have turned the Internet into something it was never intended to be -- a system for monitoring our private lives. Were fighting back and demanding needed reforms, but we don’t have to wait while politicians promise change. We have the power right now to take the first steps toward making mass surveillance impossible and restoring human rights to the web. On June 5th, we will reset the net, turn off the parts of the web that governments have invaded, put on new armor, and come back stronger than ever before. We dont need anyones permission. Now that we know how bulk surveillance programs work, we know they have a weakness: the NSA can hack anybody but their bulk spying operation (the one that violates our human rights!) relies on specific, technological mistakes-- mistakes we can fix. Reset the Net is our moment to harness the collective power of the web and meet mass surveillance head on. Everyone has a role to play. If you’re an Internet user, promise to try out one new privacy tool that directly confronts mass surveillance. We’ll have an epic and definitive list for you to choose from. Then tell your friends to get protected too. (Check out https://privateinternetaccess and https://torproject.org in the mean time!) If you have a website or Tumblr, get our Internet Defense League code installed and display the Reset the Net message on June 5th to help educate and rally Internet users worldwide to defend themselves from dragnet surveillance. If you’re a developer, promise to add one new surveillance-resistant feature to your app or website, and announce it here on June 5th. Sign up at https://resetthenet.org/
