A source is not censored, it is boycotted. CNN content can be posted through archiving sites.

A boycott means CNN won't profit from links. Why should we pay them to threaten us?

A boycott group effort is volunteer, this is not, this is being forced on everyone.

CNN content can be posted through archiving sites.

What about rich/javascript content that is not parsed or displayed by archivers? What if CNN bans the archivers from downloading content (as Vice did)? And what about "the list of excluded threaten to doxx" sites[1] that is likely to grow?
