"There is a lot of bad on the internet and it seems to only be getting worse. But one of the things the internet did well, and is worth preserving, is nontraditional paths for creativity, journalism, and criticism. As governments and major corporations throw up more barriers to expressionand more and more gatekeepers try to control the internetit's important to learn how to crash through those gates."
"In EFF's interview series, Gate Crashing, we talk to people who have used the internet to take nontraditional paths to the very traditional worlds of journalism, creativity, and criticism. We hope it's both inspiring to see these people and enlightening for anyone trying to find voices they like online. Our mini-series will be dropping an episode each month closing out 2025 in style."
"Be sure to mark your calendar or check our socials on drop dates. If you have a friend or colleague that might be interested in watching our series, please forward this link: eff.org/gatecrashing For over 35 years, EFF members have empowered attorneys, activists, and technologists to defend civil liberties and human rights online for everyone.

Internet platforms enabled nontraditional paths for creativity, journalism, and criticism even as harmful content grows and barriers increase. Governments and major corporations are erecting restrictions and gatekeepers that limit expression. EFF's Gate Crashing interview series features people who used the internet to enter traditional worlds through unconventional routes. The series aims to inspire viewers and help people find online voices they value. The mini-series will release three monthly episodes closing out 2025: Fanfiction Becomes Mainstream on October 1, From DIY to Publishing on November 1, and A New Path for Journalism on December 1.
