[Advocacy Advisors] February 11 protests against mass surveillance

Tue Jan 14 20:16:56 UTC 2014

Hello everyone,

On February 11, a few groups are organizing a series of protests against
mass surveillance. You can read more about their current plan here:
https://thedaywefightback.org/

There is some discussion on English Wikipedia about joining this
campaign.[0] It looks like some users support Jehochman's proposal to
curate articles, facts, and news about spying and privacy on the Wikipedia
front page, in coordination with the protest.[1]

What do you think about this? Is there anything else we should be
considering to get involved on February 11?
