EFF needs a few good volunteers. With many important technology projects in the works and a limited amount of staff and time, we are always looking for volunteers with the skills to help us support the open source projects that we run.
If you are a designer, programmer, security auditor, QA person, or have other skills to contribute, we are happy to have your help. Some ways you can help include: improving design, improving usability, fixing bugs, reporting bugs, finding security issues, fixing security issues, writing tests, adding new features, translating interfaces or helping with whatever needs to get done.
Policy regarding AI-generated contributions:
- Please refrain from submissions that you haven't thoroughly understood, reviewed, and tested.
- Please disclose if your contribution was AI-generated
- Descriptions and comments should be made by you
- Project leads can determine if submissions aren't reasonably reviewable
