‘This’ is a discussion about whether the EFF is worth supporting. I’m not sure that is what they are trying to promote.

'this' is on HN right now becuase rastafang posted it.

I do not pretent to know what their motivation in doing so is, but I for one appreciate them bringing it to attention, 3 days after the EFF published it, in turn 7 days after the actual event itself.

It was unnoticed at the event itself, barely noticed when they wrote a story about it and is only now noticed thanks to being upvoted on here.
