I agree. youtube-dl was another example of them turning a vulnerable moment into a win: https://twitter.com/natfriedman/status/1328365679473426432 https://twitt

  Which, btw, was also thanks to the EFF. Their mission is occasionally murky these days, but their part in the subsequent restoration of youtube-dl in the face of a DMCA takedown is not to be ignored or forgotten. https://github.com/github/dmca/blob/master/2020/11/2020-11-16-RIAA-reversal-effletter.pdf https://github.com/github/dmca/blob/master/2020/11/2020-11-1...

    In what way is their mission occasionally murky?
    • fragmede 5y ago
      In the face of widely popular de-platforming of some individuals, it's not clear to me what the EFF's position should be. I don't want them to ignore current affairs (aka how to counter cultish indoctrination of people with totally bonkers lies like "the covid vaccine has a microchip in it") while at the same time preserving the freedom of speech we believe in (in the US).
