Holmes from Fight for the Future sez, “The Internet Defense League is a post-SOPA network of sites that use their reach to defend and improve the web. Because it can sound the alarm quickly to millions of people, people are calling it a ‘bat-signal for the Internet’. The league is launching on July 19th, the same night that the new Batman movie. And the plan is to have actual spotlights beaming actual ‘cat-signals’ across buildings and clouds in cities around the world. We just launched a crowd-funding campaign. Help plan a party or pitch-in to make them happen.”
So on Thursday night, as Hollywood’s latest superhero movie opens in theaters for a midnight showing, IDL members in select cities can celebrate the launch around powerful spotlights rented for the occasion. The spotlights will beam the IDL’s “cat-signal” into the stratosphere, across obliging clouds, or onto neighboring buildings.
Plus we’ve got a bunch of other cool items for league members who donate.
