Dear Ricky, The media will have the story soon, but I wanted you to know first: We just turned in almost 700,000 signatures from across California, representing voters in every county. Soon, the Tax Cannabis 2010 initiative will be on the November 2010 statewide ballot, and voters will finally have the chance to legalize, tax, and regulate cannabis in California! We wouldn't have been able to do this without supporters like you -- folks from every walk of life who agree that our laws criminalizing cannabis have failed, and that we must legalize, tax, and regulate cannabis in California this year. Now that we have turned in the signatures, it's time to let the rest of California know about our movement.Please click here to use our easy tell-a-friend tool to tell ten friends about the campaign. The absolute best way for Californians to find out about our campaign is to hear about it from their friends and family -- in other words, from you. Letting your friends and family know why you support this campaign couldn't be easier. We've set up an easy way for you to load your email contacts, and send a pre-written message (or edit it if you like).Just click here to tell your friends and family about the campaign to legalize, tax, and regulate cannabis in California. Thank you so much for your support. Today is an exciting day.Now let's spread the word!
Sincerely, Richard Lee

Planetary Whole System Design Science: A Contribution to WorldShift 2012
www.lawoftime.org, www.noosphereforum.org
Dr. Jose A. Arguelles, Director Galactic Research Institute, Foundation for the Law of Time, Honorary Member Club of Budapest.
The movement "Planet of People - the New Humanity" unifies in a spiritual and ethical field all citizens living in our world who have recognized the importance of moving in communion and who are aware that the World is a cosmic ship carrying in its cabin all Mankind - thus also comprehending that those who rule it have to be people who are not only well-educated but also persons of high spiritual values, capable of carrying the responsibility of generations to come. The construction of such a ship and its management has to be carried out in a totally scientific noospheric field - as though one was constructing a satellite to be sent to space.
Liubov Gordina, "Global Strategic Initiative of World Civil Society:
Noospheric Ethical-Ecological Constitution for Mankind" (2009)Planetary Whole System Design Science - Global Survival and the Path of Unification
The recent United Nations Copenhagen Conference on Global Warming (December 8-18, 2009) was a failure of the collective human will to act decisively in the face of a life-threatening crisis. This is because the present world leadership represents various levels of competing or conflicting interests that could not be resolved. None of the leadership at the Copenhagen conference seemed to neither comprehend the Earth as a whole system nor be able to speak on its behalf above all personal or collective self-interest.
The fact is, that unless there is a world leadership committed in its decision making process to principles of a planetary whole system design science, the human species will forfeit its future.
There are now but three years to find such a leadership willing to adopt and implement these principles. Even if such leadership cannot be gathered, it is nonetheless necessary to articulate the principles of a comprehension of the Earth as a single unified system. The elementary principles of a post- or meta-nationalistic thinking - planetary whole system design science - must be defined in light of the geological transition from the biosphere to the noosphere, and of the inexorable path of cosmic evolution, which is toward ever-greater states of conscious unification.

Happy New Year! This is the year we finally legalize, tax, and regulate cannabis in California! Only two weeks into 2010, we are already seeing strong support for our movement.This past Tuesday, the California State Assembly's Public Safety Committee voted 4-3 to approve Assembly Bill (A.B.) 390, which would have led to the full legalization of cannabis in California. This was truly a historic moment: It marked the first time in U.S. history that a legislative committee voted for a bill to tax and regulate cannabis.Click here to take a moment to thank Tom Ammiano, Nancy Skinner, Jared Huffman, and Jerry Hill -- the four members of the Public Safety Committee who had the guts to support the legislation!Despite strong support for this bill from our allies throughout the state, A.B. 390 is unlikely to move much closer toward implementation this year.That means the responsibility is now squarely on our shoulders -- the voters of California -- to pass a Tax and Regulate bill at the ballot box on November 2.And thanks to the courage of Tom Ammiano, Nancy Skinner, Jared Huffman, and Jerry Hill, this goal seems that much more possible.Click here to thank these Assemblymembers for standing with us and with the majority of Californians who are ready to legalize, tax, and regulate cannabis in 2010. Thanks for your support! I can't wait to work with you in the year ahead.

Last fall, the Federal Communications Commission proposed rules for "Net Neutrality" — a set of regulations intended to help innovation and free speech continue to thrive on the Internet.
But is the FCC’s version of Net Neutrality the real deal? Or is it a fake?
Buried in the FCC’s rules is a deeply problematic loophole. Open Internet principles, the FCC writes, "do not...apply to activities such as the unlawful distribution of copyrighted works."
For years, the entertainment industry has used that innocent-sounding phrase — "unlawful distribution of copyrighted works" — to pressure Internet service providers around the world to act as copyright cops — to surveil the Internet for supposed copyright violations, and then censor or punish the accused users.
From the beginning, a central goal of the Net Neutrality movement has been to prevent corporations from interfering with the Internet in this way — so why does the FCC’s version of Net Neutrality specifically allow them to do so?
Go to the Real Net Neutrality petition to tell the FCC that if it wants to police the Internet, it first needs to demonstrate that it can protect Internet users and innovators by standing up to powerful industry lobbyists. Sign your name to demand that the copyright enforcement loophole be removed:

~ EFF Fights for Anonymity for Online Critic
The Electronic Frontier Foundation (EFF) has asked a federal judge in
San Francisco to quash a baseless subpoena aimed at outing an
anonymous online critic of a Pennsylvania company called USA
Technologies. A hearing in the case took place on Friday, December 18.
The judge has not yet issued a ruling.
Earlier this year, EFF's client -- Yahoo! user "stokklerk" -- posted
to the Yahoo! message board dedicated to the company, criticizing USA
Technologies and its CEO George Jensen, Jr., for plummeting stock
prices, high compensation rates for executives, and consistent lack of
profitability. Another anonymous poster had similar complaints. In
response, USA Technologies filed suit in the Eastern District of
Pennsylvania, alleging that the statements violated federal securities
regulations because they were part of a "scheme" for the authors to
"enrich themselves through undisclosed manipulative trading tactics."
USA Technologies also alleged that the online posts were defamatory.
As part of that lawsuit, USA Technologies issued a subpoena out of the
Northern District of California to Yahoo! asking for the critics'
identities.

~ Lawsuit Demands Answers About Social-Networking Surveillance
EFF, working with the Samuelson Law, Technology, and Public Policy
Clinic at the University of California, Berkeley, School of Law
(Samuelson Clinic), filed suit against a half-dozen government
agencies for refusing to disclose their policies for using social
networking sites for investigations, data-collection, and
surveillance.
Recent news reports have publicized the government's use of social
networking data as evidence in various investigations, and Congress is
currently considering several pieces of legislation that may increase
protections for consumers who use social-networking websites and other
online tools. In response, the Samuelson Clinic made over a dozen
Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) requests on behalf of EFF to the
Central Intelligence Agency, the Department of Justice, the Department
of Homeland Security, and other agencies, asking for information about
how the government collects and uses this sensitive information. A
hearing on our lawsuit will be held next week.

Updates:
~ EFF Helps Blogger Subpoenaed by TSA, TSA Backs Down
On December 31, 2009, the Transportation Security Administration
backed off on an ill-considered administrative subpoena it issued to
transportation industry blogger, Christopher Elliott. EFF assisted Mr.
Elliott in responding to the subpoena.
The subpoena was hand-delivered to Mr. Elliot by a TSA representative
on the evening of December 29, 2009. It sought all documents
“concerning your receipt of TSA Security Directive 1544-09-06
dated December 25, 2009.” The much-criticized directive had been
given to hundreds of employees of TSA and the airlines and described
some of the passenger-related security measures put into place in the
immediate aftermath of the unsuccessful attempted bombing of a
Northwest Airlines flight on December 25, 2009. The directive expired
on December 30, 2009. Mr. Elliott obtained it in the course of his
coverage of the situation and had sought TSA comment before
publishing. The subpoena demanded all documents by the close of
business on December 31, 2009, just two days after the agent delivered
it.

~ Most Pirated Movie of 2009…Makes Heaps of Money
According to TorrentFreak, last summer’s Star Trek movie was the
“most pirated movie of 2009.” So it seems that Paramount
Pictures was prescient when it gave testimony before the FCC that used
Star Trek as an illustrative example of how “Internet
piracy” is poised to devastate Hollywood and (though the nexus
here is less than clear) undermine residential broadband in America.
Funny thing is, Star Trek is on course to make more than $100 million
in profits.

~ Doctorow: How to Destroy the Book
Former EFF staffer turned novelist Cory Doctorow gave a stirring
speech entitled “How to Destroy the Book” in November at a
Canadian conference dedicated to literacy. Fittingly, it was
spontaneously transcribed and posted online at TheVarsity.ca. The
whole thing is terrific, but the first portion, an elegy to books and
what they mean to us, is highly recommended to anyone who loves
books.

Our fellow Internet freedom advocates at Electronic Frontiers
Australia are gearing up for an important fight in the new year as the

~ Who Knows Who Your Facebooks Friends Are?
As you may have heard by now, one of the biggest problems with
Facebook’s recent privacy overhaul was that it removed
users’ ability to hide their friend lists from the world. This
was one of several changes that were met with substantial criticism
and anger from the media and Facebook users. Facebook's ostensible
goal in this overhaul was to give users more clarity, flexibility and
control. But, with friend lists, they've accomplished exactly the
opposite.

~ Intelligence Agencies Release Docs Describing Misconduct
The Department of Homeland Security, the Department of State, the
Office of the Director of National Intelligence and the National
Security Agency released 162 pages of intelligence oversight reporting
in response to a Freedom of Information Act lawsuit filed by EFF in
July.
The reports, made to a presidential advisory committee called the
Intelligence Oversight Board, detail intelligence activities that the
agencies "have reason to believe may be unlawful." EFF has posted the
documents to our website and is in the process of reviewing them.

~ Good News from WIPO: U.S. Delegation Supports Visually Impaired
Citizens
The World Intellectual Property Organization’s Standing
Committee on Copyright and Related Rights met in Geneva to discuss a
proposed treaty intended to increase access to books and other
information in formats accessible to the world's blind, visually
impaired and print disabled citizens.
There's a chronic shortage of accessible format material across the
world. In the U.S. it's estimated that only 5% of published works are
available in formats accessible to visually impaired persons. In the
U.K. it's 4% and in India it's 0.5%. The treaty is intended to address
two things that have led to this situation: first, the lack of
exceptions in countries' national copyright laws that would permit
creation of accessible format copies of works for the visually
impaired without having to seek prior permission from copyright
owners; second, uncertainty about the legality of importing and
exporting accessible format material created under a national
exception or special license in one country for use by visually
impaired citizens in another country. In a thoughtful and clear
statement, the U.S. delegation to WIPO acknowledged the concerns of
the visually impaired community and suggested how the international
copyright community should proceed in addressing the needs of those
with print disabilities.

~ White House Takes Another Step Towards Greater Transparency
The Obama Administration has issued its long-awaited Open Government
Directive (OGD), a blueprint for transparency that the President
promised on his first full day in office nearly a year ago. The OGD
imposes four broad mandates on the federal bureaucracy: 1) publish
government information online; 2) improve the quality of government
information; 3) create and institutionalize a culture of open
government; and 4) create an enabling policy framework for open
government. The Directive sets time limits, ranging from 45 to 120
days, for agency action to implement specific benchmarks. Hopefully
the OGD is the first of many concrete steps that will be taken to
alter the entrenched culture of secrecy that pervades the federal
government.

~ EFF Submits Key Brief in State Secrets Privilege Case
EFF has filed an amicus brief in the Ninth Circuit's en banc review of
Mohamed v. Jeppeson, a case brought by the ACLU challenging the CIA's
extraordinary rendition program. A panel of the Ninth Circuit Court of
Appeals had rejected the government's argument that the case had to be
dismissed at the outset due to the state secrets privilege. The panel
decision is now being considered by a larger, en banc panel of the
Court.

~ Terms of (Ab)Use: Are Terms of Service Enforceable?
In the first of a series of white papers on terms of service (TOS)
issues, EFF has released "The Clicks That Bind: Ways Users
“Agree” to Online Terms of Service." The paper aims to
answer a fundamental question: when do these ubiquitous TOS agreements
actually become binding contracts? We discuss how courts have reacted
to efforts by service providers to enforce TOS agreements and suggest
best practices for service providers to follow in presenting terms to
a user and for seeking his or her agreement to them.

~ Google Books Settlement 2.0: Evaluating Censorship
When it comes to evaluating the proposed Google Books settlement, the
principal potential benefit to the public (i.e., increased access to
books online) must be weighed against the potential drawbacks (i.e.,
impediments to competition and inadequate protection for privacy).
Another potential downside for the public in the proposed settlement
is the risk of censorship.
If Google's scans under the proposed settlement are likely to be the
only chance millions of books will have for a digital life, then the
potential for censorship is something to be taken very seriously
indeed.

~ Destabilizing the UK’s Digital Economy
Much of the coverage of the UK's proposed Digital Economy bill has
centered, and rightly so, on the damaging consequences to civil
liberties for Britons caused by its Internet termination provisions.
Less documented is how damaging these regulations are for the bill's
own namesake: Britain's present and future digital economy.

~Senator Bayh Responds on ACTA
Senator Evan Bayh recently responded to a constituent's concerns about
the Anti-Counterfeiting Trade Agreement (ACTA). Sadly, Senator Bayh's
letter is troubling and frustrating. He echoes the USTR's misleading
conflation of "counterfeiting" and "copyright infringement," doesn't
address the draconian Internet provisions, and, worst of all, fails to
acknowledge the most egregious problem altogether -- that ACTA is
being negotiated in secret and being hidden from Congress and the
public.

~ Surveillance Shocker: Sprint Received 8 Million Law Enforcement
Requests for GPS Location Data in the Past Year
—Armed with a tape recorder, computer security researcher,
oft-times journalist, and current technical consultant for the FTC's
privacy protection office Chris Soghoian attended a closed-door
conference called “ISS World” looking for information
about the scope of the government's surveillance practices in the US.
ISS World — the "ISS" is for "Intelligence Support Systems for
Lawful Interception, Criminal Investigations and Intelligence
Gathering" — is where law enforcement and intelligence agencies
consult with telco representatives and surveillance equipment
manufacturers about the state of electronic surveillance technology
and practice. What Soghoian uncovered, as he reported in his blog, is
more shocking and frightening than anyone could have expected.
Paul Taylor, Sprint/Nextel's Manager of Electronic Surveillance,
complained about the 8 million requests Sprint received from law
enforcement in the past year for precise GPS (Global Positioning
System) location data revealing the location and movements of Sprint's
customers.
