Comment:

 You just do not get Free Open Source Software, do you? Users own the right
 to edit the software as they please. Tor Project has no ability to control
 what sites people can host and access. Relay operators have no ability to
 either. This is permanently baked into the design.

 Best to completely forget about the whole blog post, it was a very stupid
 idea, one very new person decided in haste, and doesn't speak for everyone
 in the Tor community. Speech may be unpleasant, even "dangerous", but it
 is still free speech.

 Tor is an anonymity network and in reality has nothing to do with human
 rights one way or another except the right to privacy.
