During the SOPA blackout, National Public Radio offered a free back-up service on Twitter for people who needed research questions answered. I'm not sure what their success rate was compared to Wikipedia's Reference Desks, but can we return the favor? Journalism is actually under direct assault by the government now:

Is there a specific action you have in mind?
What actions can the Foundation take to protect those of our readers and editors who are or act as journalists?
What actions would you propose?
What is the status of my request to ask the Foundation's cloud providers to produce peer-to-peer versions of their applications capable of end-to-end encryption?
[maybe this was answered earlier but I think I did see you ask before with about the same specificity as here]
I would appreciate it if you were more precise when referring to the use of cloud providers. Please give examples of particular services / vendors you're concerned with. Also, define p2p. (is there an example of a particular service that should add p2p support?)
Do you mean services used * only by foundation employees? * to monitor the sites? * as a critical part of the site's infrastructure? * as mirrors of foundation hosted services? * some other way?
(some services may have multiple uses. e.g. github is both a mirror and a canonical store depending on the repo in question)
