*November [[2002]]: Die [[2600: The Hacker Quarterly]] Tydskrif saak, 2600 Tydskrif word verhoed om skakels na die [[DeCSS]] kode te publiseer onder die bepalings van die [[DMCA]]-wetgewing.
*Ondersteun pogings om 'n databasis daar te stel oor die misbruik van intellektuele eiendom wetgewing en om moontlike slagoffers in te lig.
*Desember [[2003]]: [[RIAA]] teen [[Verizon]], Die EFF ondersteun Verizon in 'n suksesvolle teenstaan van 'n laer hof se beslissing wat bepaal dat die maatskappy die identiteit van 'n [[Verizon]] kliënt moet bekendmaak wat daarvan beskuldig is dat hy kopiereg geskend het deur lêers te deel op 'n [[eweknie netwerk]] met [[KaZaA]] sagteware. Die Appelhof het met [[Verizon]] en die EFF saamgestem en bepaal dat die spesiale dagvaardiging bepalings van die [[DMCA]] wetgewing van toepassing is op materiaal wat op 'n [[internet diensverskaffer]] se rekenaaar gestoor is en nie op materiaal wat op 'n indiwidu se eie rekenaar gestoor is nie.
 
*[[2004]]: DirecTV teen Treworgy. Die EFF help om die eienaar van "smart card" tegnologie Mike Treworgy te verdedig nadat [[DirecTV]] 'n hofgeding teen hom aanhangig gemaak het op gronde daarvan dat hy hardeware aangeskaf het wat gebruik kon word om die maatskappy se satelietseine te onderskep. Treworgy het sy saak gewen en die Appelhof het beslis dat [[DirecTV]] nie gedinge aanhangig kan maak teen mense vir die blote besit van smart-card tegnologie nie. In afsonderlike onderhandelinge met [[DirecTV]] het die EFF daarin geslaag om die maatskappy te kry om sy "skuldig-by-aankoop" strategie te laat vaar.

*December [[2003]]: [[RIAA]] v. [[Verizon]], D.C. Cir. EFF supported Verizon in a successful challenge to a lower court ruling holding that the company must reveal the identity of a [[Verizon]] customer accused of copyright infringement using the [[peer-to-peer]] file-sharing software [[KaZaA]]. The DC Circuit Court of Appeals agreed with [[Verizon]] and EFF that the special subpoena provisions in the [[DMCA]] apply to potentially infringing material stored on an [[internet service provider|ISP]] server, not material stored on an individual's own computer.
*[[2004]]: DirecTV v. Treworgy, 11th Circuit. EFF helped defend "smart card" technology owner Mike Treworgy after [[DirecTV]] sued him based on the fact that he purchased hardware that could be used to intercept the company's satellite TV signals. Treworgy prevailed in the 11th Circuit Court of Appeals, which found that [[DirecTV]] cannot sue individuals for "mere possession" of smart-card technology. In separate negotiations with [[DirecTV]], EFF succeeded in getting the company to drop its "guilt-by-purchase" litigation strategy altogether.
*[[April 19]], [[2004]]: Initiated the [[Patent Busting Project]] to challenge "illegitimate patents that suppress non-commercial and small business innovation or limit free expression online"
*May [[2004]] [[ACLU v. Ashcroft (2004)|Doe v. Ashcroft]]. Filed amicus supporting ACLU's challenge to the constitutionality of 18 U.S.C. § 2709, which authorizes the FBI to compel the production of subscriber and communications records in the possession of a broad range of ISPs, potentially covering billions of records from tens of thousands of entities. These demands, known as National Security Letters, were issued without judicial oversight of any kind, yet allowed the FBI to obtain a vast amount of constitutionally protected information. In September [[2004]], Judge Victor Marrero of the Southern District of New York issued a landmark decision striking down the NSL statute and the associated gag provision.
