You got farther than I did. I've never seen their website or read
their manifesto. Not for lack of trying, but they use Cloudflare's
Man-in-the-Middle-as-a-Service (MITMaaS) to prevent users of Tor from
visiting. I even tried telling them about it, but they either didn't
care or didn't understand. It's a shame that they exclude in this
way.
