> I'm skeptical that cloud flare can somehow be roped into 'corporate censorship' -- they IMHO clearly were not founded or intended to enable some sort of nefarious intent. Quite the opposite in fact.
The fact that CloudFlare makes it challenging for users from a particular network to access common resources is, in itself, a form of censorship. This is especially problematic due to the nature of people who tend to use Tor, i.e. those who seek some level of anonymity for various reasons. I don't believe CloudFlare is malicious or intends to block legitimate Tor users. But it is censorship nonetheless, hence the title.
Linux Mint doesn't seem to prioritize security in general. No TLS for ISOs, no easily spottable signatures for ISOs, marking security updates untrusted by default...
