Hey LibTech,

Seeing as how their research is frequently posted here, I thought the
list might be interested in this profile of Citizen Lab I wrote for Ars
Technica:

Citizen Lab does really important work and is a pretty well-known in the
human rights & privacy scenes. But I'm hoping this piece will make their
efforts a little more visible and present within the larger tech world
and beyond -- esp. given their uniqueness as an institution that
grapples with these topics on multiple levels in the post-Snowden era.
Please feel free to share widely.

Cheers,
