That said, I've long since stopped listening (or contributing) to the EFF as I see their war on antispammers as counterproductive. John Gilmore runs a well-known open relay at toad.com, and for some reason thinks that free, anonymous speech is important enough to let spammers drown it out through sheer volume. I prefer having usable email, so I no longer support the EFF.
While I continue to be saddened by this, I have to agree. The EFF has done amazing, necessary work on so many issues, and I thank them for that -- but they've been blaming the wrong people regarding spam for many years. -- J.D. Falk okay, what's next? <jdfalk@cybernothing.org>
