I went along to last night's TechMeetup in Aberdeen, Scotland, and Jim Killock from the Open Rights Group (UK non-profit org) came to speak about their goals and the current state of affairs in the UK.

If you like in Scotland or the UK, please go to the ORG page and help out as much as you can!

From their website:

What's the situation?

Many people are concerned by the direction the Scottish Parliament is taking with civil liberties. There are growing plans for Entitlement Cards – a scheme that looks rather like ID Cards by the back door, attacks on Freedom of Information law in Scotland, proposals for massive data sharing across the Scottish government, and laws ordering the blocking of sectarian websites.
