I can understand that limiting services is sad, but nobody has a claim either, right?

So offering to some is way better than offering to none because of overwhelming opsec work (which is still secondary to the content). If the vandals show a pattern, it's bad luck if one shows the same. And proxying should be known to those who suffer from the block.

Maybe internet has to let go the mania of offering everything to everybody all the time. Like real life.
