So you are okay with the EFF getting a very large donation from an organization involved in litigation with the purpose of harassing the plaintiff and draining their resources? That doesn't sound like "not corrupt in spirit." That sounds like "greenwashed extortion racket."

  See and that is why such a law is a problem because people just twist your words in ways which turn them into something you 100% did not say (or did) and then you can't try to take down a abusive patent.

    It's a good thing that nothing in this rule change prevents the EFF from taking down abusive patents so long as they are not paid by a for-profit company to do it.

    This is exactly what the EFF does. Their statements is so pointed, it's hard to take seriously.
