They also have a Mastodon account: @eff@mastodon.social

Where they get absolutely roasted for their stance on AI 😄

Their correct stance that copyright doesn't protect rights holders from training AI on content scraped legally.

Maybe, but their stance on AI does suck.

[-] Eyekaytee@aussie.zone 13 points 1 week ago

What is their stance on AI?

Copyright doesn’t protect from training on data that was scraped legally.

Which is exactly the stance I would expect from EFF, since their primary goal is an open and free internet. Scraping is a normal activity if you ascribe to that ethos.

Only stupid people support copyright and patent laws.

Promoting it with...a Twitch stream.

[-] TragicNotCute@lemmy.world 83 points 1 week ago

You have to meet your audience where they are at. Twitch makes a lot of sense and has a lot of reach.

[-] artyom@piefed.social 12 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago)

You can reach your audience from a variety of channels. At least one of them should be free. This should be seeringly obvious to an org like EFF.

Well that website links to livestream.eff.org, and that page says the stream will be "simulcast", i.e. mirrored, to Twitch and Youtube. So the main channel is indeed free.
