"SAN FRANCISCO—The Electronic Frontier Foundation (EFF) is honored to announce
that Alexandra Asanovna Elbakyan, Library Freedom Project, and Signal
Foundation will receive the 2023 EFF Awards for their vital work in helping to
ensure that technology supports freedom, justice, and innovation for all
people.

The EFF Awards recognize specific and substantial technical, social, economic,
or cultural contributions in diverse fields including journalism, art, digital
access, legislation, tech development, and law.

Hosted by renowned science fiction author, activist, journalist, and EFF
Special Advisor Cory Doctorow, the EFF Awards ceremony will start at 6:30 pm PT
on Thursday, Sept. 14, 2023 at the Regency Lodge, 1290 Sutter St. in San
Francisco. Guests can register at <https://eff.org/effawards>. The ceremony
will be recorded and video will be made available at a later date.

For the past 30 years, the EFF Awards—previously known as the Pioneer
Awards—have recognized and honored key leaders in the fight for freedom and
innovation online. Started when the internet was new, the Awards now reflect
the fact that the online world has become both a necessity in modern life and a
continually evolving set of tools for communication, organizing, creativity,
and increasing human potential."
