Wait a second...EFF is on the side of: "it is ok to strip out my copyright string from my code"? How did they end up on that side?

Victory for the industry shills at the EFF. It is absolutely shameless that they spin this as a victory for programmers:

"The U.S. Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit handed internet users and programmers a big win today ..."

I am a programmer and I am not represented by the devious EFF liars. You support stealing my code.
