We have even fought hard to defend your privacy in legal cases; however, we've done it with almost no financial support -- paying out of pocket to continue providing the service.

The Austin Forum

http://www.austinforum.org/

The Austin Forum provides a way for people to become informed and participate in discussion of such interesting and diverse topics as the environment, politics, economics, entertainment, philosophy, religion,
activism, education and many more. The underlying theme among all Forum topics is science and technology and its impact on society. Recent events include a talk by Elizabeth Keating, director of the Science, Technology & Society (STS) program and professor of anthropology at
The University of Texas at Austin.

The STS program (http://www.sts.utexas.edu/)
is an interdisciplinary concentration in the College of Liberal Arts and explores the social impacts of rapid scientific and technological change by integrating approaches from liberal arts, social sciences, and humanities with new developments in
science and technology.
