How? Go here. (It's managed by Ed Falk, whom I find trustworthy.)
It's good to help David, and that's a good reason to donate. But another good reason is if you're like me and you work in email or network security, you've done a lot of the things David was "accused" of -- "impersonating a mail server" by doing a telnet to port 25 to troubleshoot a mail server issue, performing DNS zone transfers, used the host command, etc. Uh, hi, these aren't illegal, regardless of what a judge may think. These are regular tools lawfully used thousands of times a day by thousands of internet professionals.
Please donate to David Ritz's legal defense fund.
Why? Read this. (My post also got picked up by CircleID and Slashdot.) Read this, too.
