[Kroack]

1. 16 (God, you're all so old)

2. Male

3.

4. If something were to personally impact my life negatively I'd fight it. Otherwise I could care less.

5. Yeah, people should be entitled to speak their minds and watch their porn in peace.

6. Uh. Don't torrent stuff or using copyrighted material is as far as my knowledge extends.

7. Word of mouth basically. From neighbors, family, and friends. I don't actually follow any news source.

8. RPPR, Youtube, Dwarf Fortress, Wikipedia, Google, and various other smaller websites.

9. I don't really spend much money online anyway.

10. Read an article. Videos get to caught up in making something presentable and ideas can be lost along the way.

11. No. They're monuments to self worship and stupidity.

12. Umm. Sometimes I go to the BBC website. But not regularly.

[IDaMan008]

1.   What is your age?
Twenty-five.

2.   Are you male or female?
Male.

3.   Do you know what the Electronic Frontier Foundation (EFF) is?
Indeed I do.

4.   Would you be likely to donate time or money to protect civil liberties?
I don't really have much money at the moment, but if I did, I would certainly donate. I do have plenty of free time, so I would have no problem with volunteering.

5.   Are rights like freedom of speech and privacy on the Internet important to you?
Freedom of speech and freedom of privacy are important civil liberties no matter what the context. Because the internet has become such an enormous part of the social and economic fabric of everyday life, giving up these rights online would have the same effect as it would if we conceded them "IRL," as the kids say.

6.   How informed are you about legal issues regarding the Internet and computers?
I'm no expert, but I read the occasional article about technology and the law. I would say I've got a pretty good understanding for a layman.

7.   Where do you get your news from?
I read The New York Times primarily, but I also take a peek at CNN.com every once in a while. BoingBoing.net lets me stay in on stories that may have slipped by the mainstream media, although they usually accompany their reportage with a fair amount of commentary and personal opinion.

8.   What websites do you regularly visit, at least once a week?
Facebook, Twitter, Blogger, The New York Times, YouTube, Google, Wikipedia, several webcomics, and (of course) RPPR and its forums.

9.   Do you feel comfortable spending money online?
Mostly. I tend to do business online with bigger companies, like Amazon, or smaller companies that use PayPal.

10.   Would you prefer to read an article or watch a video to learn about something?
Either works just fine for me.

11.   Do you think websites like Facebook and Twitter are useful to learn about new things?
Absolutely, although it's pretty much impossible to go on the internets nowadays without seeing ads. The tubes are flooded with 'em.

12.   Do you pay attention to news sources that are outside the mainstream, such as foreign new services or independent documentary filmmakers?
I do, although I'd be hard-pressed to name more than a few of the aforementioned sources. I don't regularly turn to alternative sources for my news.

[Wooberman]

1.   What is your age?
26

2.   Are you male or female?
Male

Nope

Yes, if i had money i would.

5.   Are rights like freedom of speech and privacy on the Internet important to you?
 Yes, very much so. Expression is paramount to development, without development we as a culture would stagnate. Privacy is also important, Expression is good but its better when properly directed.

6.   How informed are you about legal issues regarding the Internet and computers? 
I have to admit my ignorance.

7.   Where do you get your news from?
Local Newspapers and MSN Website but only in passing. If there is a headline that catches my eye then i would browse over it for a few moments. Apart from that its mostly word of mouth.

8.   What websites do you regularly visit, at least once a week?
Break, Collegehumor, Numerous Webcomics, The Escapist, YouTube, Rppr Forums and many many more.

9.   Do you feel comfortable spending money online? 
Yes, sometimes a little too comfortable as if it was too easy.

10.   Would you prefer to read an article or watch a video to learn about something?
Preferrably Read but sometimes I'm too busy so a video would suffice.

11.   Do you think websites like Facebook and Twitter are useful to learn about new things?
I guess they are but unfortunately the internet is a swamped market of adverts and its like trees and grass, they're there but you don't really look at them.

12.   Do you pay attention to news sources that are outside the mainstream, such as foreign new services or independent documentary filmmakers?
Yes, mostly independent documentary films on subjects i find personally interesting. So not many.
