Full quote from EFF a few days ago:

“Free expression is the lifeblood of democracy. As more of our lives take place in digital spaces, EFF’s work grows more relevant and urgent to ensure everyone’s right to free speech.”

At the same time, EFF turns a blind eye to Cloudflare, who:

  1. impedes petition signing on change.org, moveon.org, and actionnetwork.org. Voters who are blocked by CF’s access restrictions are effectively denied participation in democratic processes.
  2. blocks voters from accessing information about candidates published on sites like www.opensecrets.org.
  3. suppresses voting: CF impedes voter registration, disenfranchising voters in 8 US states (16% of voter registration sites).

The EFF is apparently okay with forcing people to choose between the privacy of the Tor network and democracy.
