I'm very glad that this is being discussed and to have you here. I feel that it is important to fight such things, and this is an excellent way of getting people informed about the problem at hand.

Within this discussion, I'm hoping that you not only inform people about things they can do to help and such, but also give people real information about how they can start protecting themselves now.

I think that one of the problems with getting people fighting against things like CISPA is their lack of knowledge of the degree of insecurity to wich they are currently exposed. Most people don't understand how e-mail is sent as plaintext and can be easily intercepted, etc.

What is the EFF's suggestion for best general practices on the internet, as well as some tools that will help a user's privacy in this coming era?

It's scary how many of the major fighters of SOPA/PIPA have decided to support CISPA.

Do you have an Anti-CISPA pamphlet or reasonably sized image with basic facts, links to get more information (QR codes) and such, so that we could print them and bring them to work, when we go out shopping, and other things?

Might have something to do with multiple countries being liberated recently through the use of the internet. I am also interested in EFF's response to this question.
