Certainly. EFF regularly compromises with our allies, e.g. on who will
run a particular web page, what a campaign icon will look like, where an
event will be held, etc. We're just not in the habit of compromising on
legislation, since we are not in a position to give or sell anything,
particular the rights of the public and of individual citizens.
