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.
