- Electronic Frontier Foundationsearch for term
- The Electronic Frontier Foundation is a nonprofit organization dedicated helping society understand and navigate the Internet's unique resources. It was founded in 1990 and is based in San Francisco with another office in Washington, D.C. It engages in several different types of activities, with a diverse staff of lawyers, activists, technology experts and volunteers. The EFF raises public awareness of the civil liberties issues that arise from the widespread development of the Web, and lobbies policy makers to craft appropriate legislation to guard users' First Amendment rights. The organization also seeks to educate the public and lawmakers of the vast opportunities and resources available online. The EFF supports the development of new tools to facilitate easy first-time usage of the Internet, and takes on legal cases that address the violation of personal freedoms online, fair use, and defends patent violation charges it considers baseless.
