Who (or What) Generates Images for EFF?

EFF — Deeplinks · · International · AI Governance

The Electronic Frontier Foundation has clarified its image creation policy after supporters asked whether it uses AI-generated visuals. The organization states that its design team produces images by hand, with rare exceptions, drawing on legal and technical expertise built up over time.

Why this matters: EFF spends its days pushing back on how tech companies use people's work and data without asking. So how it handles AI image generation is a fair question. Using human designers is a values call, not just an aesthetic one. It keeps the organization consistent with its own positions on copyright, creative labor, and accountability. When an advocacy group's practices match its public stance, that is worth knowing. When they do not, that matters too.
