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.

Y'all remind me of Republicans asking if the actors in a movie are Democrats before they decide whether or not to watch it. Give it a rest.

Promoting it with...a Twitch stream.

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

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.

A doctor must go where the sick people are.

A doctor cannot be in several places at once. That's where your analogy falls apart.

I'd say it holds up even more. All sick people go to hospitals and that's where we employs doctors. EFF's target audience^[1]^ are using Twitch so they go there.

1: I assume, since why would they use Twitch otherwise?

All sick people go to hospitals

Yes, once again, that's why this analogy does not make sense. The EFF is not running a hospital, they're running a livestream, which can happen in any of a dozen different places simultaneously.

Perfect is the enemy of the good, aight?

Checking every single ethical box will leave you with an audience of 1,5 nerds. For EFF, this would be a massive failure on their mission.

EFF needs outreach, and Twitch provides it. Managing a political project is in a big way about pragmatism, and EFF maintains integrity where it matters.

Plus you can't trust people to accurately decide which people are ethical or not. Look at Israel, their agents and allies mindfuck the left and right with abandon, and even leftists will fall for it, castigating and rejecting tens of millions of people because they are "right" pointing to groyper twat faces as charicatures of all of them, while doing the same to the left on the right, associating you alll with their charichatures.

Stop using lemmy, use piefed or mbin. They have better filters. I have blocked anything and everything related to us politics and it's been pretty good. Mastodon is filled with US people and their dumb topics though. It's good I don't like the way mastodon presents stuff because I find it impossible to navigate and follow discussions. Threads are way better

Have you considered it's not the space you hate but the people who occupy it? Try as hard as you may, you will not find a place for people to talk without finding people talking.

trust me I definitely use it, however fundamentally this is taking a place that has like 3 hobbies (American politics, Linux and Left Wing Progressive/American politics) and making it even smaller, this was supposed to be an alternative to reddit but it has like 7 active comms that aren't somehow related to the above 3, even Lemmy Shitpost is filled with American/Left Wing Politics ALL the time

You're going to say next: be the change you seek and I am however I am a drop in the American ocean
