I'm not sure what's the impact, but I guess it's good if newsletters going out to flocks of customers start looking like EFF newsletters, e.g. with this issue focused on privacy (the case is about a site named DisruptJ20, it seems). https://www.dreamhost.com/blog/the-end-of-the-road/
Didn't check the Wordpress hosting thing.

October 2017 Newsletter
Oh, hello!
Welcome to the NEW DreamHost newsletter!
If it looks a little different, that's because it is! We threw a new coat of paint on the ol' bird and we think it looks pretty nice.
There's less to read now, so it should be a little more digestible. We've freshened up the design, threw in some lovely illustrations, and even snuck in an ad or two to give you the full modern e-newsletter experience!
We've worked hard to make this as absorbable as some of your finer topical medications. Please rub it in, wait for the burning to cease, and once you've regained consciousness, marvel at your newfound enlightenment.
And the forehead tattoo. That one's from me. :*
