Fighting for Bloggers' Rights

If you're a blogger, this website is for you.

EFF's goal is to give you a basic roadmap to the legal issues you may confront as a blogger, to let you know you have rights, and to encourage you to blog freely with the knowledge that your legitimate speech is protected.

To that end, we have created the Legal Guide for Bloggers, a collection of blogger-specific FAQs addressing everything from fair use to defamation law to workplace whistle-blowing.

Fight the scourge of "Authorized Journalism."

Interesting--I'll have to give this a closer look.

I think you'd be interested in one of the key events that caused the formation of the EFF. (which can be found here)

Essentially, the Secret Service couldn't understand that you can't hack a computer by rolling some dice and almost caused one of the biggest companies in the table-top role-playing industry to go out of buisness.
