> Dear Aidan,
>
> For almost 20 years, the Electronic Frontier Foundation (EFF) has  
> been dedicated to  protecting your rights to free speech, privacy,  
> and innovation in the digital world. We faced many challenges in  
> 2009, and, with your help, EFF fought back with experience,  
> authority, and passion. As another year comes to a close, please  
> help us continue the fight for your civil liberties by making a tax- 
> deductible donation now: http://eff.org/friends2009
>
> Here are a few things we were able to accomplish over the past  
> year, thanks to the support of EFF members like you:
>
> *EFF taught YouTube users how to fight back against the widespread  
> censorship of their videos with our "No Downtime for Free Speech"  
> campaign.
>
> *EFF rallied users and pushed to unlock cell phones so they could  
> be used with whatever carrier and/or software users choose with our  
> "Free Your Phone" campaign.
>
> *EFF created the "Teaching Copyright" curriculum and website to  
> combat entertainment industry misinformation and give students the  
> real story about their digital rights.
>
> *EFF launched "Surveillance Self-Defense International," a  
> practical guide to help dissidents avoid censorship and  
> eavesdropping by repressive regimes.
>
> *EFF fought for your right to communicate without government  
> surveillance through unlawful warrantless wiretapping by advocating  
> in Congress and litigating in Hepting v. AT&T and Jewel v. NSA.
>
> *EFF uncovered thousands of pages of government documents through  
> our "FOIA Litigation for Accountable Government" project and made  
> them freely available on our website for downloading, printing, and  
> searching.
>
> And that's only a small sample of the work we've done this past  
> year. Check out a more complete accounting of our accomplishments  
> at http://www.eff.org .

>
> We couldn't have done any of this without your support. More than  
> half of EFF's funding comes from individual donors like you, and we  
> need your help to keep up the fight. Help us continue this  
> important work. Please give a 2009 tax-deductible donation to EFF
