The #FSF wanted to know why I'd cancelled recurring billing immediately after my membership auto-renewed. So I told them.

Email reply reads: 

I never intended to renew at all. I was done with the FSF the minute it allowed RMS to reinstate himself as its figurehead. Consider this
last year as an accidental freebie that I wasn't QUITE mad enough about to reverse the charges on my card to prevent.

We all owe a lot to RMS, but that "lot" does not include keeping him as the visible face of free software despite his incredibly bad track
record of deterring women from participation.
