Fight For the Future, along with some of the other orgs that helped coordinate SOPA protests, are working to coordinate alerts about future threats to internet freedom. They hope to provide brief pointers about what's at stake to everyone interested, once major problems are identified.

Right now their work seem to focus on issues affecting the Internet in the US; and it's not clear to me yet who define what threatens 'net freedom. But in principle this is an important thing for the Internet to have, covering every jurisdiction.

Has anyone been working on projects like this around the world? This seems like something wikimedians could support in a less in-your-face way than by blacking out wikipedia language projects, once problematic issues become crises. At the very least, by offering a place to summarize neutral information about the issues [and tackling the related style and context issues; which we already do], and by helping to make the conversation a global one.
