While Cloudflare dropped their support of Kiwi Farms, the next company people'll be applying pressure to is Fiberhub, who actually physically hosts them.

Gen X, what do you most remember about the late 1990s? Specifically, 1994 through 1997. What moments (of art, politics, books, music, fashion) most stick with you? I’ve been making a list….
