A project after my own heart

The Individual-i project seeks to reinforce the rights of the individual in the face of increasing challenges. They've developed a symbol to represent this campaign, as well as a list of principles and links to supporting historical documents (like that crazy Bill of Rights).

It represents the right to privacy and anonymity in the information age. It represents the rights to an open government, due process, and equal protection under the law. It represents the right to live surveillance free, and not to be marked as "suspicious" for wanting these other rights.

Anybody is free to add the symbol to their websites, design t-shirts with some of their suggested slogans, or use it in other ways. And, of course, to promote the principles underlying it.

Update: just refound a very appropriate quote to include here:

If privacy is outlawed, only outlaws will have privacy.

-- Phil Zimmermann,
cryptographer (1954- )
