Why are you pretending that the EFF is writing headlines for HN? We are not the (only) intended audience.

I find it very unlikely that you don't understand this.

Oh well -- the EFF knows that if they write for themselves, there'll be lower-brow comment-threads full of 'lol wtf bbq' and no one will take them seriously because they won't understand. Write accessibly, and well-read nitpickers of a HN-like brow alignment will pick apart their clickbait headlines. Damned if you do, damned if you don't.
