You can browse through 700+ other projects on the KiF page and judge for yourself whether or not it helps. I don't know that anyone has presented solid evidence of it actually hurting or helping. It might be for the best to follow the guidelines above provided by Kickstarter about leaving the badge off your project page etc. One obvious success story from a KiF project:

Interestingly enough, he does have the KiF badge on his project, albeit wayyyy down on the page. With a presentation that good, I'm guessing this guy would have reached his funding goal no matter what.

I put the KIF logo on my page, I thought it sounded like a great idea. Not really sure what the backlash is, why would it be confusing?

Not sure to be honest, but that seems to be Kickstarter's stance. They haven't been cracking down too much, at least from what I understand, but it does kind of fall into their guidelines that a creator can't promise to donate a portion of funds to another endeavor or cause if successful.

I'm not familiar with it but I read the material and it seems really interesting.
