 ====== Open This Data! ======
-This project aims to help lift legal and technical restrictions on data, and get rapid community response to changes in terms of use. The [[http://button.datalets.ch/|Open Data Button]] is an easy, social way to share the fact that you are prevented from accessing data in some way. Users of the button can get legal or technical help from the online community, including help with next steps, such as [[http://www.isitopendata.org/|Is It Open Data?]], [[https://github.com/mysociety/alaveteli/wiki/List-of-foi-websites-and-projects|Freedom of Information requests]], or another campaign.
