EFF and ALA Post-Election Statements
Executive director Cindy Cohn writes in “The 2024 U.S. Election Is Over. EFF Is Ready for What’s Next.” for the Electronic Frontier Foundation (EFF), “The dust of the U.S. election is settling, and we want you to know that EFF is ready for whatever’s next. Our mission to ensure that technology serves you—rather than silencing, tracking, or oppressing you—does not change. Some of what’s to come will be in uncharted territory. But we have been preparing for whatever this future brings for a long time. EFF is at its best when the stakes are high.”The American Library Association (ALA) also pledges to support the people—that is, the librarians that make up its community. “We know that many of our members are concerned that the election results portend attacks on libraries, library workers, and readers,” ALA president Cindy Hohl said in a statement. “Whatever happens, ALA will stand up for all Americans’ freedom to read—and we will need everyone who loves libraries to stand with us.”
