ASCAP has also been actively against the EFF, Creative Commons, and others. > In June 2010, ASCAP sent letters to its members soliciting donations to fight entities that support weaker copyright restrictions, such as Public Knowledge, the Electronic Frontier Foundation, and Creative Commons https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/American_Society_of_Composers,_Authors_and_Publishers https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/American_Society_of_Composer...
