They're raising awareness but they're not eating their own dog food.

It is a tumblr-site which loads a lot of external java script from
https://www.optimizely.com/ and other external pages which is a privacy
problem. That's not a good example if you want to protect privacy.

This is part of a greater problem on the web where hipsters have created
things that "look nice" but absolutely destroy your privacy and also the
accessibility of the website.
