It's one thing for the EFF not to accept Bitcoin for it's own reasons specific to legal advocacy - but from the above, we see that their about-face and public statements continue to damage Bitcoin's reputation in the non-profit sphere.

Are you suggesting that an organisation that is not a defacto, official, recognised body of authority, but just a foundation that is supposed to give advise and steer in a certain direction is actually being listened to by people to the extend it has an effect on things? That people don't look further than the first thing they see and just take their truth for granted? And you're not happy with how this foundation operates? Because it hurts bitcoin? That's a really bad thing indeed. My god, imagine that happening to bitcoin!  Shocked

But what is so great about this? The BEST way to change this (according to a founding member of the foundation) is to become a member and make your vote count. Good luck, and please let us know how it worked out for you! Cheesy
