So we would like to start a membership/collective aspect of our privacy nonprofit calling it the User Liberation Network with the purpose of connecting technologist and users interested in user privacy and security. Is anyone interested in assisting with organizing the organization? We already have our 501c3 here in the states so it's more about creating an organization's rules, bylaws, purpose and activities. Along with recruitment efforts and ideas.

@kravietz
The issue for nonprofits come with the authorization and approval process by Facebook. I worked as the lead technologist on a Green Party campaign in NY and Facebook would not allow ads because they did not recognize the small city the candidate was from. So more specifically local nonprofits and small cities will end up not being able to use Facebook ads by default with the new approval process.

@c1t1z3n0n3 I don't think they completey ban these ads, just require full disclosure on funding etc. What intrigued me is that there's twice as much "sensitive" topics in the US as in EU :)

has one more critical aspect: it takes hate speech out of the mainstream and puts it back it to the free speech niche where it belongs. Most people derive their baseline for what is "acceptable" from how widely and easily it's available.
