EFF - the Electronic Frontier Foundation

Those that run torrent tracking sites such as Isohunt and The Pirate Bay claim that donations to EFF, the Electronic Frontier Foundation, will help the abuse of those downloading copyright material. Surely this is missing the point. It is still stealing, no amount of rationalization is going to change that fact.

What EFF say on their website:

"..... the Electronic Frontier Foundation (EFF) is the first line of defense"

and:

"EFF is the leading civil liberties group defending  your rights in the digital world."

The problem I have with all this is the same one that I have with the "Occupy" crowd.
