If you care at all about the internet this is great!

This explains a lot of complicated concepts in plain English anyone can understand. It really shows us what is going on, how we can get involved, and provides different avenues to strengthen our digital rights. If you care at all about your rights, privacy, or the internet you need to hear this.
