The first was set up by Adam McElhaney, an engineer in Tennessee. As of this writing he'd raised around $60,000 of what was initially a $10,000 goal, though the goal on his website, searchinternethistory.com, now puts the goal at $1 million.

According to his site and the GoFundMe, McElhaney plans to buy internet history from "all legislators, congressmen, executives, and their families and make them easily searchable"—though he singles out the Republican legislators who advanced the legislation.

The other was set up by Misha Collins, who's raised more than $25,000 out of a $500 million goal. Collins' plan is to buy the internet history of everyone who voted in favor of internet service providers being able to sell consumer data. The GoFundMe assures contributors that the intent is not to release information that might put politicians in danger, and, should the fund not pull in enough money to "buy the data," donations will go to the ACLU.

Whether you believe that enough to donate is up to you.
