I'm not sure where the reference is made referring to EFF being or using a "transparent" approach.  I believe, however,  that the person referencing this term has misused it in this context. While it may be  true that the word, transparent's literal meaning conjures ideas such as "clear", "easy to understand", etc., it is figurative meaning is not a positive attribute.  It generally refers to concepts which lack substance or depth.

Within the context of the latter definition, EFF is, indeed, not "transparent".
