I suspect a lot of people will be unable to read it if they use HTTPS everywhere: the 4chan blog does not support https and the EFF is currently in a ruleset freeze so they cannot reflect that until the next stable version is out.


Tumblr only recently added SSL support, which is likely the reason Moot hasn't implemented it yet.

That said, I(unfortunately) doubt that HTTPS-everywhere is being utilized by that many people.


That's only for the dashboard. Blogs are still cleartext. It's possible to do SSL for *.tumblr.com domains but not (easily) for custom ones.


A lot of corporate firewalls block access to 4chan etc.
