Mozilla public policy works with other teams at Mozilla and with our community of users and developers to provide products and services that make the Web more robust, and to take action when there are opportunities to protect and strengthen the Web’s DNA.
==Activities and Issues and Activities==We maintain a running list of our filings and blog posts by issue, starting with 2014, here: [[Netpolicy/actions]] 
The Internet policy issues we engage with fall into two broad pillars of activity: trust and openness.
<!-- Add in link to resources / collected past actions page here -->
===Trust + integrity===
Our work on trust and integrity policy begins with the established external contexts of surveillance reform and privacy, working to develop the values of control, transparency, and privacy. Active issues in this pillar of our work include:
* [[Netpolicy/actions#Surveillance|Surveillance reform ]] - touching on a multifaceted set of geographic and legal contexts, and a range of active, unresolved issues* Security public policy [[Netpolicy/actions#Cybersecurity|Cybersecurity]] - finding opportunities for change advocacy that go above and beyond information sharing and risk management, including fighting for the continued freedom of users to communicate securely, without backdoors* [[Netpolicy/actions#Privacy|Privacy ]] - continuing leadership on raising public awareness of privacy to build a better, more open Internet future* Data collection , and use - evangelizing and advocating for better data stewardship and management* Engaging with other issues as they develop globallyprivacy policies
