Introducing Syn/Ack Pac, a Political Action Committee for "SysAdmins,
Tinkerers, CodeMonkeys, Makers, Technologists, Warranty Voiders, and
Geeks of all types."
Why Do Geeks Need a PAC? Non-profit groups like the Electronic Frontier
Foundation, Public Knowledge and many others do a great job
evangelizing, lobbying, and litigating on our behalf. But as non
profits, they're unable to particpate in the political process. That
political void is what SYN/ACK PAC seeks to fill, bolstering the
efforts of our non profit friends with our participation in campaigns
and elections, we'll make sure we elect members of Congress who will
represent our beliefs.
