If the above poster never replies, I would assume that they're referring to (from a quick google) the fact that the EFF opposes laws that would put liabilities for blockchain software on the software author[1], and provides other similar defenses, similar to how the ACLU occasionally defends the free speech of white supremacists[2], to ensure equal protection under the law and avoid setting a bad legal precedent.

edit: Specifically, they probably mean the EFF's opposition to the crypto surveillance provision in the Biden infra bill:

Huge props to both groups then. Selectively enforced rights aren't rights at all.
