The front line of politics.

Many people are unhappy with the effectiveness of the political process, but just accept government by corrupt elected officials and inflexible, antiquated bureaucracy.  Others are trying to change the way we do things.  Like marches for civil  rights, they facilitate speech on the internet when strong arm tactics are trying to quite the voices of dissent.  We all praised the work of those that enabled the liberation of Egypt last year.

It is technically challenging work and while there is a risk of incaceration and even violence from potent incumbents these “radicals” depreciate their own safety to support liberty.  Have a look at this video to see how good it feels to do the right thing.
