"It's no secret that digital surveillance and other tech-enabled oppressions are acute dangers for liberation movement workers. The rising tides of tech-fueled authoritarianism and hyper-surveillance are universal themes across the various threat models we consider. EFF's Surveillance Self-Defense project is a vital antidote to these threats, but it's not all we do to help others address these concerns. Our team often receives questions, requests for security trainings, presentations on our research,"
"Combining efforts across our Public Interest Technology and Activism teams, we consulted with an estimated 66 groups and organizations, with at least 2000 participants attending those sessions. These engagements typically look like OPSEC advising and training, usually merging aspects of threat modeling, cybersecurity 101, secure communications practices, doxxing self-defense, and more. The groups we work with are often focused on issue-spaces that are particularly embattled at the current moment, such as abortion access, advocacy for transgender rights, and climate justice."
Digital surveillance and tech-enabled oppressions pose acute dangers to liberation movement workers. EFF's Surveillance Self-Defense project offers resources to counter these threats. The Public Interest Technology and Activism teams consulted with an estimated 66 groups and at least 2,000 participants through OPSEC advising and training. Sessions combined threat modeling, cybersecurity 101, secure communications practices, doxxing self-defense, and related topics. Many engaged groups focus on abortion access, transgender rights, and climate justice. Grassroots organizations are often under-resourced and cannot access corporate-focused infosec services. Community-focused OPSEC advice supports realistic protections and informs updates to practical guidance and blog resources.
