Day (automobile)

The Day Utility was an automobile manufactured in Detroit, Michigan by the Day Automobile Company from 1911-14. The Day used a four-cylinder, 30 horsepower (22 kW) engine and shaft drive. Removal of the rear seat and doors allowed the car to be converted from a five-seater touring car to a light truck in one minute. As a truck, the Day was able to carry up to 1,000 lb (450 kg) in a 36-inch (910 mm) by 96-inch (2,400 mm) cargo space. The rear seat could be lifted away by triggering two spring locks. The Day had an advertised price of $950US.

Restore the Fourth

Restore the Fourth is an American 501(c)(4) nonprofit that seeks to strengthen the Fourth Amendment to the United States Constitution and end programs that violate it. Following the start of the Global surveillance disclosures, Restore The Fourth organized protests on July 4, 2013 (Independence Day), August 4 (Orwell Day), October 26 (Stop Watching Us), and April 10, 2014 (Shut Down Spy Centers). In 2015, Restore The Fourth helped to introduce the Surveillance State Repeal Act, worked to oppose the renewal of the PATRIOT Act authorities governing mass surveillance, filed an amicus brief in US v. Ganias, and introduced the Decide The Future surveillance scorecard for legislators.

History

Restore the Fourth originated on the social media website reddit shortly after the information leak by Edward Snowden, which detailed the US National Security Agency's (NSA) mass surveillance programs, most notably the PRISM. A subforum (known on reddit as a `subreddit') dedicated to the movement was created, garnering over 15,000 subscribers in 2 weeks. From there, Restore the Fourth moved to Snoonet, an IRC network for reddit communities. Most organization prior to July 4, 2013 occurred there, where local organizers, national organizers, and users from the subreddit collaborated.
