Given the lack of objection I've gone ahead and retweeted this from
@Wikipedia and @Wikimedia.

I would be in favor of a retweet accompanied by a thank you. (Also, I am
genuinely touched by their support.)

Or our own tweet about it thanking them? Copying in Michelle if she has an
opinion .
TLDR: EFF Blog post
<https://www.eff.org/deeplinks/2015/09/eff-asks-court-behalf-libraries-and-booksellers-recognize-readers-right-be-free>
about
a brief they've filed (to be technical they've filed a motion to be allowed
to file the brief... but I wouldn't want to be pedantic... even if I am in
legal things) in our case on behalf of some large Library and Bookseller
associations including the ALA (American Library Association) and ABA
( American Booksellers Association. I think it would be nice to get a
retweet at least if not something more specific.
If we really want crap to tweet we could start individually thanking (one
a day? ;) ) the 9 1st amendment/constitutional law professors from 8 highly
ranked law schools who also filed a brief in the case on our side :).
