It's KiwiFarms what we are talking about. Just fuck them. They deserve to be censored, and I almost never say this.

Of course they do, but it isn't the ISP's job to do so. I believe that is the point that the EFF is making here.

Censorship sometimes needs to happen to protect people, but it should be conducted by website owners/platforms and government authorities -- on each end of the information transaction, not in transit by an ISP.
