Thanks for posting this, I was not aware how far they've strayed off civil liberties.

Have not investigated this, but pg [0] seems to thumbs down ACLU and thumbs up FIRE:

FIRE is primarily funded by conservative and libertarian foundations and pg (much like most VCs) is libertarian. I'm not saying this to dunk on them, but it's unsurprising that pg would tend towards FIRE over ACLU, which is funded by slightly more progressive libertarian foundations (unless you consider George Soros a leftist).
