I haven't heard these claims that Cloudflare regularly drops customers, and I'm not sure they're true, though I'd be interested to read a list of occasions. The claim that Cloudflare supports the content on kiwi farms, though, is absurd.

Cloudflare does FAR MORE content moderation than required by law. They aren't a free speech host. They remove speech they disagree with every day. They host Kiwi Farms because they support the content on it. They dropped sites used by sex workers because they consider it immoral.

They've dropped tons of customers. They did a mass purge of sites associated with sex workers among many others. You can find lots of information on it easily: twitter.com/DanielMicay/st Not sure what's absurd about pointing out they regularly remove content they find immoral.

One of the sex worker sites they banned from their main services was just a Mastadon instance for sex workers to talk to each other (Switter). They banned that, but not Kiwi Farms. theverge.com/2018/4/19/1725 Government never ordered them to ban this. It was entirely their choice.

Yeah this seems like fear about legal liability bc of FOSTA. The fact you perceive it as merely an excuse doesn't make it so. I point out that claiming they support kiwi farms is absurd, bc once you notice your theory has absurd conclusions, that's evidence against the other ones

They host content for the Taliban and many other US sanctioned entities. They host Kiwi Farms. They aren't afraid of legal liability for it. They make it clear in their own post they do not consider themselves liable for the content for their caching reverse proxy / firewall.
