We (EFF) love Humble Bundle! I don't have numbers, since I'm a lawyer not a fundraiser, but I know that their support has been significant!

The NSA's bulk surveillance programs are illegal and unconstitutional under the law as it exists now. Both the Bush and Obama administrations have worked hard to make sure that no public court reaches the merits of the programs, and until now, they've been successful.
We (EFF) and ACLU have a number of active challenges that will place the legality of the programs squarely before the federal courts. As far as I know, there has been no talk of a new privacy amendment, but the idea is interesting!

Mark Jaycox (jaycoxEFF on this AMA) wrote up EFF's guide to the bills currently pending. It doesn't have the very latest yet, but it's a great place to start: https://www.eff.org/deeplinks/2013/08/effs-cheat-sheet

So glad you asked!
We did an 8-part series of blog posts on this very question. https://www.eff.org/deeplinks/2013/spies-without-borders
Furthermore, international supporters are most definitely invited to sign the petition here: https://action.eff.org/o/9042/p/dia/action/public/?action_KEY=9297
The petition asks major US tech companies to themselves call on Congress to end the spying!

We here at EFF are talking with a number of retired politicians who may join us for a couple of upcoming projects. Stay tuned!
