Oh dear. I've had a response from the EFF, and they've defended their choice, saying that 'they don't have the resources' to use a more values-compatible (my term) tool for the job. They need to remember that 'expedience is the absence of principle.' So unimpressed. I've written a rather comprehensive email in response, but going to sleep on it before sending. I'm SO disappointed in the EFF - if *any* organisation on the planet needs to grasp this, it's them. Otherwise, they've failed.
