I’m doing research right now - I figured a follow up to this thread was good enough, instead of a new discussion.
The electronic frontier foundation is very friendly with the berkman center. Ok. So who funds the Berkman center?

Look at the list. It’s a who’s-who of left wing foundations and left wing corporations. Such as Microsoft, the John D/Catherine T Foundation, John S/James L Knight foundation, the Ford foundation(All freepers should be well acquainted with the ford foundation by now) the leftists at Google support them, and yes, the Open Society Institute(Soros) also supports Berkman. Al-Reuters is on the list, as is Viacom. The drive by media supports Berkman!
My fellow freepers, the internet is a target. We should know who our enemies are. Berkman and the EFF are not our friends if we wish to retain our freedoms.
Look at their own website. No other conclusion to come to.
Thanks for the follow-up. The truth has been revealed in enough places. EFF is dead to me.
Astroturf, definition, a front organization created by a political or corporate entity to feign the appearance of a grassroots movement.
Example: “Hands Off The Internet” was a pretend grassroots organization created by the telco industry to combat net neutrality, trying to frame it as a pro-consumer stance.
EFF: Created in 1990 by two guys (one a libertarian and former Dick Cheney campaign coordinator) whose personal experiences led them to the realization that government was clueless about technology in relation to law enforcement and civil liberties. It has since grown to be the preeminent digital civil liberties organization (including combating Righthaven).
Quit your lie that the EFF is astroturf. It is absolutely blown.
