Between the Thunderclap that reached 9.3 million people, the Restore the Fourth protests that drew thousands in more than 100 cities, the Internet Defense League action with participation from sites like BoingBoing and 4chan, and the 30-second ad that your donations put on TVs across the country, today may have been the largest protest for privacy rights in U.S. history.
