Not a total waste of paper, but definitely not worth the

Computer Professionals for Social Responsibility (CPSR)
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
CPSR empowers computer professionals and computer users to advocate for
the responsible use of information technology and empowers all who use
computer technology to participate in the public debate. As technical
experts, CPSR members provide the public and policy makers with
realistic assessments of the power, promise, and limitations of computer
technology. As an organization of concerned citizens, CPSR directs
public attention to critical choices concerning the applications of
computing and how those choices affect society.

By matching unimpeachable technical information with policy development
savvy, CPSR uses minimum dollars to have maximum impact and encourages
broad public participation in the shaping of technology policy.

Every project we undertake is based on five principles:

* We foster and support public discussion of and public responsibility
for decisions involving the use of computers in systems critical to
society.

* We work to dispel popular myths about the infallibility of
technological systems.

* We challenge the assumption that technology alone can solve political
and social problems.

* We critically examine social and technical issues within the computer
profession, nationally and internationally.

* We encourage the use of computer technology to improve the quality of
life.
