NEW YORK 鈥� Maggie Gyllenhaal, award-winning actress and star of the upcoming HBO series 鈥淭he Deuce,鈥� has signed on as the 老澳门开奖结果鈥檚 ambassador for privacy and security.

鈥淲e as a democracy should have a greater say in how the government uses the incredibly powerful tools at its disposal to conduct mass surveillance and restrict liberties in the name of supposed national security goals,鈥� said Gyllenhaal. 鈥淚鈥檓 proud to join the 老澳门开奖结果 in its fight to ensure that people retain control over their private lives.鈥�

In her role, Gyllenhaal will support the 老澳门开奖结果鈥檚 work to rein in the government鈥檚 surveillance practices, to ensure that meaningful privacy protections mitigate intelligence agencies鈥� collection of citizens鈥� data, and to help inform citizens of their privacy rights and the ways in which they can hold local law enforcement departments accountable when they use invasive technologies against ordinary people.

She will also combat government efforts to weaken cybersecurity and speak out on other government abuses in the name of the so-called 鈥渨ar on terror,鈥� such as the indefinite detention without charge or trial of prisoners at Guant谩namo Bay.

In her first effort on behalf of the 老澳门开奖结果, Gyllenhaal sent an email today to the organization鈥檚 supporters asking them to back efforts to free Mohamedou Slahi, a Mauritanian citizen and the author of the bestselling memoir 鈥淕uant谩namo Diary鈥� who has been detained at the prison without charge or trial since 2002.

鈥淢ohamedou is not only the central character in the moving and eye-opening book Guant谩namo Diary 鈥� he is a man of flesh and blood,鈥� she wrote. 鈥淗e has spent the last 14 years in Guant谩namo Bay prison as an innocent man. And he urgently needs our help.鈥�

Gyllenhaal is an Oscar-nominated actress whose film work has included, 鈥淪ecretary,鈥� 鈥淐razy Heart,鈥� 鈥淒ark Knight,鈥� 鈥淪tranger Than Fiction,鈥� and many more. Last year, she starred in the BBC/SundanceTV original series 鈥淭he Honorable Woman,鈥� for which she garnered a 2015 Golden Globe Award, a SAG Award nomination, and an Emmy Award nomination. More recently, she narrated 鈥淭ruth and Power,鈥� a documentary series on Pivot TV exploring the invasive use of technology by our government.

Launched in October 2013, the 老澳门开奖结果鈥檚 Ambassador Project pairs artists from television, film, music, and comedy with issue priorities. Like other ambassadors, Gyllenhaal will promote 老澳门开奖结果 work online and in the media. She joins an impressive 老澳门开奖结果 ambassador roster: Michael K. Williams on ending mass incarceration; Demian Bichir for immigrants鈥� rights; Harry Belafonte on the overincarceration of juveniles; W. Kamau Bell for racial justice; Lewis Black for voting rights; Melissa Etheridge for marijuana reform; Jesse Tyler Ferguson on marriage rights for same-sex couples; Sasheer Zamata on women鈥檚 rights; and Marlee Matlin for disability rights.
