Looking through the history looks a bit suspicious. Even if the questionable bids were removed, it’s still likely to be 100k+ for the username!
Edit: Closer to $15k right now lol.

if you’re wondering who this charity is supporting like I was, they, apparently, haven’t decided yet. but here’s their short list of nominees:

Qubes! Holy hell, that’s a blast from my past. I didn’t contribute or anything, to be clear, but I did use it and enjoy it while I did. It’s a really interesting way to handle security.
Its an active project. Likely lots of improvements if you haven’t used it for a while.
Past? Still my daily driver and I couldn’t imagine anything else.
Hell yeah, I’m glad it’s worked for you! I capitulated because I wanted to do VR gaming and I couldn’t figure out a way to make that work.
Ah, yes. Gaming is something Qubes is not good for lol
Women Who Code might not be a good choice… https://www.vice.com/en/article/g5v53w/girls-who-code-team-up-with-tomahawk-missile-maker-raytheon
But I’m definitely excited to see Tor and Fight for the Future on the list!
Women Who Code and Girls Who Code are different nonprofit organizations.
They’re run by different people and have distinct goals (WWCode: supporting and empowering women who are in the tech industry; GWC is focused on getting more women into tech by providing opportunities to learn programming to girls).
Oh okay, my mistake. Thanks for pointing that out

How is that bad? The girls get a foot into Raytheon that they probably wouldn’t anyway, because the industry is sexist. And Raytheon gets to pad their diversity numbers and still have high quality employees.
I don’t want the money I donated to be used for the benefit of the MIC.
We shouldn’t be glorifying weapons manufacturers. They make things to kill people.
It’s like the hangman problem, but with skill involved… yes they make things that kill people. That’s the entire point. Where else do people think their freedom comes from, other than others having to dream up death and destruction. I think broadening their workforce might lead to less damaging ideas, that’s the hope usually with these initiatives.
Yeah you can miss me with that freedom shit.

I love at least half of those, haven’t heard of the rest. Hopefully they donate to a few of them.
