US citizens: email or phone your congresscritter saying to
preserve the Open Technology Fund, which develops free/libre programs
to protect freedom from the repression of many governments.
It can't hurt to contact your senators as well.
There is an organized campaign to preserve the Open Technology Fund.
Although I was put off by its use of the term "open source",
which is a philosophically weak substitute for "free software", its arguments for the OTF are valid and look effective.
So I decided to sign it.
Alas, to sign one has to run nonfree Javascript software, which I refuse to do. Likewise I am morally bound not to encourage
you to sign it, which is why I do not post a reference to it here.
You can probably have as much influence with your own direct emails as
you would by signing a petition, and with phone calls even more
influence. Please show your support.
