Perhaps they still do, particularly because that’s exactly what they stand for. The overall shift in perspective and narrative to the right makes them appear left.
If the narrative of a platform is intentionally divisive and making them appear left, leaving is the only way to both be center and present as center.
A warped perspective is hard to spot if you’ve been staring at it too long.
The only congressman who would actually support the EFF in digital rights is Massie, a republican.
Reading their post they throw out every progressive buzz word for the omnicause, they are clearly aligning themselves with the progressive wing of the Democrats. The wing which is ironically some of the most anti-free speech in all of American politics.
Nothing said here is of substance and instead mere projection of speculation.
If they came out openly as gay as an organization but kept their current stated goal of digital freedom, they still would be a digital rights organization I do not see what driveling about supposed progressive politics makes fighting for digital rights bad.
MAGA is the one who decided ideas like freedom of expression, an expectation of privacy, and holding governments accountable were woke liberal concepts.

That's when I would donate to them, annually. I still have two t-shirts.
EFF still does.

Massie, a republican, and Rand Paul, another republican, are by far the most supportive of free speech politicans in congress.
By what metric?

And neither of them are MAGA. They fucking hate Trump. Republicans aren't all MAGA.
Blue Sky heavily censors its platform

This was a bipartisan agreement. Democrats just say "nothingburger" a lot when you talk about it.
The EFF is, and has always been, a libertarian org with a narrow focus.
True as stated, but if you generalize the statement to "enemy concepts", who decided that?
For example, where did the term "freeze peach" come from?
That is incredible rewriting of history.
No, that is the obvious and clear truth. MAGA has done a pretty good job at making the opposite appear true, though.
How? He's "investigating" CNN right now for...something? Something about them reporting on the Iran war
