Instead, EFF filed court papers AGAINST. people who suffered some of the most heinous tech-facilitated crimes in history. Examples: -- Filed papers in NY against a victim of child pornography who was seeking information about the people who shared and "liked" her underage images

on Tumbler -- Filed papers urging the court to rule against a man who suedGrindr for allowing a stalker to continuously use its product to send strangers (1200 + in total) to the man's home and job to fulfill his "rape fantasies" -- Filed papers against a family whose daughter

was brutally murdered because a website trafficking in illegal gun sales allowed this man (who had an outstanding restraining order) to purchase a gun. So, to go over this, EFF collected $1.7m in other people's settlement money for a case

where a guy got a dozen annoying robocalls. That, EFF, says is a legit type of legal case to bring (especially if EFF gets the money!!). Yet, EFF used that money to intervene in lawsuits protecting corporate defendants being sued by folks whose lives were RUINED.

It boils down to this: EFF is a hypocritcal astroturfing nonprofit. EFF must return the cy pres settlement money and give it to orgs that actually help people -- not corps. Courts should NOT give EFF cy pres settlement funds in the future. @TorEkelandPLLC @MatthewSHerrick #END

The three cases I mentioned in which EFF intervened either in amicus or as non-party this past year: Herrick v Grindr (2nd Cir) Daniel v Armslist (Wisc Ct of Appeals) Cooper v Broems et al. (Supreme Ct NY)
