What Now? with Trevor Noah · Cory Doctorow: You Bought it, They Break It · 9 Jul 2026 podcast

We've got lots of ways to get involved.

We have fought the most important court battles and activist fights over digital rights.

The reason you have cryptography that will keep a secret on your phone is because we sued the NSA because they wouldn't let civilians have it.

The reason you need a warrant to read email if you're a cop is because we sued the Secret Service.

This is us.

We've been doing this since the very earliest days of the internet.

And we don't win all of our fights.

In fact, we lose a lot of them because...

Some fights you just fight because you can't not fight them, even when you're vastly overmatched.

But we win a surprising number of our fights.

And when I joined EFF, there were six of us.

There's like 110 of us now.

We're working internationally.

Like I say, I work with our allies in South Africa on their copyright implementation.

And we've now become part of a huge constellation of these digital rights groups internationally and in the US.

And so I like to think that's because of our leadership.

I've been there now, as I say, 25 years, I'm 55.

So most of my adult life.

And I can't imagine what the world would be like without EFF in it.

So lots of different ways.
