What the hell is this travesty. Now any old nobody can kill a site by larping drama on fucking twitter.

You should all think about the people dying in dictatorships before you give up a free and open Internet over some paedophile using twitter clout to ban a gossip forum

This wasn't "larping drama" - KF members went to pretty severe lengths to not just dox people but to show up at their houses and SWAT them etc.

That is a law enforcement warrant matter--not a cloudflare policing matter.

Looks like CloudFlare decided it was a PR matter, and decided they'd rather not do business with them. Oh well!

It’s a basic matter of human decency. They’re hurting people every day. Cut off their fucking access. There is no business or humane reason Cloudflare _should_ be a morally neutral arbiter; it’s a weird fetish of their CEO.

People hurt people. That's why there are police and a judicial system with checks and balances--not a kangaroo court of internet service providers.

Why do you hate marsupials
