I am not mixing, I think the current wording does not _exactly_ says
so, leaving a door open for abuse.
The current working does say what is commercial activity and accepting donations does not fall into any of those examples.
But EFF, among others, does mention that it would be more comforting if accepting donations was explicitly highlighted as an example of
activity that clearly falls outside of the commercial activity definition.
