Apparently, not a single person in Mullvad’s press department is aware of Popper’s paradox of tolerance.

The Paradox is invariably trotted out to justify political censorship far before Popper's own conditions, and frankly most often by some of the most close-minded people I've ever seen. Are they more accepting of some things than the people they want censored? Sure. But in most ways the Paradox people are hidebound bigots who demand everyone toe their lines and never demonstrate tolerance in its original meaning: Suffering the existence of that which you'd rather didn't exist.
