The Electronic Frontier Foundation (EFF) is a prominent advocacy group that champions user privacy, free expression, and open networks. Founded in the early days of the internet, the organization provides legal defense for security researchers, fights overbroad patents, and develops privacy-enhancing tools. IT professionals often reference their guidelines when implementing encryption or handling government data requests.
