[PrivacyBadger] Using Privacy Badger for Research Purposes

[Cooper Quintin]

Hi Olga,
The research project that you are working on sounds quite interesting. I
look forward to seeing the results! Privacy Badger is licensed under the
GPL v3 which means that you can use the code, make modifications to it,
etc. provided that the resulting code is also licensed under the GPL v3.
Keep us updated on the status of your project!
