Weekly Recommendation
This week’s recommendation is to support the Electronic Frontier Foundation (based in SF). I was at the awards ceremony last week and was reminded of the important work they do in the fields of privacy and digital rights. Check out one of their more well-known tools in Privacy Badger (extension). Volunteer or donate if you can.
See archived weekly recommendations (drinks, plates, causes etc.)
Also, please vote Eddie’s List for best local Bay Area website in 48 Hills Best of the Bay (last year I was a runner-up). Category under City Living.
