If that was the argument, why not make it directly? Why does the EFF frame the problem in terms of "feminist porn" while burying the lede on payday loan scams? It seems increasingly clear that nobody at DOJ gives a shit what kind of porn you watch. They're just tired of auto-billing scams.

Are we reading the same article because I feel like they are making that argument. Payday loans maybe a bad deal but they aren't inherently scams. At any rate if these are scams then why aren't they being addressed through the courts instead of via this extrajudicial method?
