Cloudflare expressed their regret for dropping the Daily Stormer and 8chan. They didn't express any regret for the many sites associated with sex workers they've blocked. They literally run censorship-as-a-service (1.1.1.3) and push for schools / libraries to adopt it...

It's you who doesn't do your research. I suggest reading twitter.com/DanielMicay/st. Cloudflare using content blocking lists from far right evangelical groups who consider LGBTQ content immoral and therefore 'adult content' is not a mistake by Cloudflare. They still use those lists.

I know several people working as software engineers at Cloudflare. According to one of them, this incident (blog.cloudflare.com/the-mistake-th) was hardly a mistake. Cloudflare is including block lists sourced from far right evangelical groups as part of their 'family friendly' DNS service.

That blog post is about the 1.1.1.3 'family friendly' DNS service and has NOTHING TO DO with Cloudflare banning sex worker sites from using their DDoS protection service. Cloudflare banned sites like Switter from DDoS protection. Cloudflare doesn't ban Kiwi Farms from it.

Wow. Well, congratulations. Let's just hope that Planned Parenthood is *not* next on the outrage hitlist.

According to this post "We are also not taking this action directly because of the pressure campaign" so are you admitting that Cloudflare's PR which you have repeatedly cited as evidence is actually thoroughly dishonest after all?

We shall see; not least it's possible that the ramped-up emotion of the past few days has tipped them over the Terms-of-Service lines, which would lead to the ban.

Kiwi Farms has hardly escalated anything. They've openly engaged in extreme doxxing/harassment/libel campaigns for years. They've previously pushed multiple people to kill themselves and have bragged about that nonstop for years. Cloudflare is being thoroughly dishonest about it.

It doesn't surprise me that you're going to buy into their latest clearly dishonest PR. Cloudflare very clearly dropped Kiwi Farms for no reason other than the threat to their bottom line from the outrage against them. Kiwi Farms has not substantially escalated anything recently.
Enjoy your evening, Daniel.

Look in a mirror to see the escalation; and have a good evening.

I suggest that you look in the mirror and question the incredibly underhanded and dishonest tactics you used to vocally support hosting a site which openly engages in extreme harassment campaigns against trans and autistic people with the ultimate goal of them killing themselves.
