The EFF dev said its a Cordova app, so why not just throw up the HTML mobile site for iOS users? You could still notify via sms, email, etc.


You can see the site here: https://github.com/EFForg/actioncenter-mobile/tree/master/ww...

Since the app is basically only for notifications, it's useless as a web site. If you want sign up for email notifications, go to https://act.eff.org/


Because they care more about making propaganda, apparently.


I understand and agree with the EFF's position and why they'd want another method of outreach but you're right, this really doesn't require an app. SMS and email are perfectly fine methods to distribute this type of alert.
