This could and should be used in the classroom and by bloggers. Sound information on a site devoted to blogging and copyright. Detailed list of FAQs and other information that can help folks understand the issues presented in the digital age. Best description from this site is in its own words, "About EFF: From the Internet to the iPod, technologies are transforming our society and empowering us as speakers, citizens, creators, and consumers. When our freedoms in the networked world come under attack, the Electronic Frontier Foundation (EFF) is the first line of defense. EFF broke new ground when it was founded in 1990 — well before the Internet was on most people's radar — and continues to confront cutting-edge issues defending free speech, privacy, innovation, and consumer rights today. From the beginning, EFF has championed the public interest in every critical battle affecting digital rights. "
