EFF seems to be making a habit of backing these worryingly pernicious bills.

Could you provide examples? I've not personally heard of the EFF backing anything worrying.
worrying != worryingly pernicious

The bill does nothing of substance. That's the problem. It's a waste of resources for the EFF and frankly makes me wonder how they're spending my (and others') money.

They are the most publicly visible electronic rights organization. It would make sense that they'd been compromised a long time ago.
There is little evidence of that. The EFF is still very valuable to electronic freedom. This bill simply used to be much better in earlier versions.
That's true, but the comment was speculation, not accusation.
