But with their more recent moves to try to "get in front of issues" such as piracy, the current FSC crew has shown more interest in being a general industry group rather than focusing on the issues of speech and censorship. That the entire 2257 legal process was a dud (overtaken by events), and that the best judgement against 2257 came not from a FSC action but by a private action makes me wonder if the ship has lost it's rudder.
To this day, the FSC still doesn't appear to have it's membership processing on the ball, they don't appear to be responsive to member needs, and if this report is true, they don't seem to be very good at keeping track of the money either.
it's all about results. How long do we have to wait to see some?
