I have similar feelings about the EFF after a few years ago they blatantly misrepresented a bill and used a bunch of anti Trump propaganda to do it.
Basically all of the EFF lawyers are in real tight with the Library of Congress, which happens to have some oversight issues (as in they have almost none) that bipartisan efforts in Congress are trying to correct. I forget the exact details but basically there was an appointed position with no accountability to anyone that Congress was at least trying to make replaceable by the Executive branch.
The EFF ran all kinds of FUD through their mailing lists to try to keep the position unaccountable to anyone, which in my opinion is behavior running in direct oppoisition to the second letter in their acronym.
