The Electronic Frontier Foundation, who are meant to protect our online rights and fight for our course still doesn't accept bitcoin.

Bitcoin is at the heart of online freedoms!

Its a digital currency which could use the backing of EEF considering they are meant to protect and support up and coming technologies. They used to support bitcon and even accepted bitcoin donations. They then refused to take bitcoin and gave all their bitcoin donations away...

They were unsure about the legal consequences of using bitcoin. So instead of fight and support the bitcoin community they blocked its usage as a donation mechanism and decided not to reeaserch and support bitcoin fully.

Anyway they are now supporting an event under their name for a convention on bitcoin.

Bit disappointed that they are meant to support digital rights yet have made very little effort in supporting the currency even to go so afar as to say they dented its reputation by refusing to use it as a donations tool.
