I gave up when they randomly jumped topics and I couldn't tell how they were related. And just generally felt like this essay could have been heavily edited to get it's point across.
In general I like the EFF and the ACLU, but I do think that it's not uncommon for them to end up on the "wrong" side because they extrapolate too far or are being dogmatic when most things have and require nuance.
I don't think I've seen either of those in a decade? Maybe it's because Firefox is my daily driver so it isn't trying to install months worth of updates at a time.
They probably won't GPL it, since that'll make the fork even less appealing to companies.
I hope they can get set up on f-droid or something sooner rather than later, as I don't want to have to manually install and update apks
I feel like instead of recreating grunge a lot of the kids just rediscovered Nirvana, but I'm interested to see if anyone has found some acts I just haven't heard of.
The ACLU tends to rabidly support anything that labels itself as free speech, even if it actually stifles it. Most importantly, to me, their continued support for Citizens United.
But maybe that's the only real case and it's just loomed so large in my mind for the chilling impact "corporations get free speech, and their dollars count as that" has had on the US political landscape.
