    @[email protected] Even more directly projects that claim to work on privacy missions cannot resist littering their Cloudflared website with Facebook, LinkedIn, Twitter, and other garbage antithetical to their mission.

    I can understand to some extent them having a presence in those shitty walled gardens for outreach to those misled audiences, but when they proactively link into those shitholes from their public-facing website, it’s obviously quite disgusting.

    RMS gives good guidance in this scenario:

    The links should go one-way: from the walled-garden to the free world.
