Cloudflare terminates services for 8Chan

[grarpamp]

Here's a bunch of random groups... anyone could make
lists on all sorts of activism sectors around the
world, any subject, from any side...  all of them
claiming free speech, that they're exclusively right,
and at times basically wishing to, and doing, censor
and murder of the other...

All above are primary subject sites spewing
whatever "disgusting" they spew, unopposed onsite.

Many to most of them are protected by CloudFlare... any
terrorists, murderers, thieves, slavers among them... are
behind CF, thus all endorsed and enshrined by CF as righteous,
rightful and right... now that CloudFlare has put itself in
the business of judgement by banning only DS and 8chan as "bad",
thus all else hosted above and everything else CF hosts,
must in fact be "good" in the official eyes of Cloudflare.

Yet 8chan, a free and open board where anyone and everyone can
and does come to talk about, propose, freely debate, share,
understand, each other on all manner of whatever random subjects
they want... is banned. That's fucking stupid.

That would be like outlawing this...

The CF censorship is also meant to covering up their
own embarrasing fact that they're ignoring and
refusing to help their own troubled youth, families,
neighborhoods, schools, citizens etc.  Meanwhile
spending utterly ridiculous amounts of money on gun
control, marijuana police, military, fake manufactured
political hot buttons, incarceration, spying, etc...
all of which are pointless.

Also meant to assist crush the right of others to live how
they want not being ruled over by, nor harming, anyone else.

In this article, Govt spy Matthew Prince supported freedom
of speech no less than the day before banning 8chan...


"
"Stormer was an arbitrary decision. I woke up this morning in a bad
mood and decided to kick them off the internet... I am deeply
uncomfortable with the decision we made. It doesn't align with our
principles."

Cloudflare faced renewed public pressure over its protection of
8chan in the wake of the Christchurch massacre. And in a phone
interview with the Guardian on Saturday night, Prince reiterated
his belief that Cloudflare should not cease to provide services to
sites such as 8chan based on their content.

"If I could wave a magic wand and make all of the bad things that
are on the internet go away... and I personally would put the Daily
Stormer and 8chan in that category of bad things... I would wave
that magic wand tomorrow, Prince said. It would be the easiest thing
in the world and it would feel incredibly good for us to kick 8chan
off our network, but I think it would step away from the obligation
that we have and cause that community to still exist and be more
lawless over time.

But on Sunday evening, Cloudflare reversed positions, and said it
would terminate services for 8chan.

Just a day earlier, Prince had argued that keeping "bad" sites
within Cloudflare's network means that the company is able to help
monitor activity and flag illegal content to law enforcement. While
he would not comment on specifics, he said that Cloudflare receives
"regular requests" from law enforcement not to ban certain sites.

"There are lots of competitors to Cloudflare that are not nearly
as law abiding as we have always been," he said. "The minute that
someone isn't on our network, they're going to be on someone else's
network If you do a search for the Daily Stormer now, it's completely
available. They're not gone, and they have bragged themselves that
their subscriber counts have gone up.

Prince also rejected any implication that Cloudflare's position is
self-interested.

"The right answer from a pure business perspective is just to kick
them off, he said of 8chan. 'Of the 2 million-plus Cloudflare
customers, they don't matter, and the pain that they cause is well
beyond anything else.'

Keeping 8chan within its network is a "moral obligation", he said,
adding: "We, as well as all tech companies, have an obligation to
think about how we solve real problems of real human suffering and
death. What happened in El Paso today is abhorrent in every possible
way, and it's ugly, and I hate that there's any association between
us and that "For us the question is which is the worse evil? Is the
worse evil that we kick the can down the road and don't take
responsibility? Or do we get on the phone with people like you and
say we need to own up to the fact that the internet is home to many
amazing things and many terrible things and we have an absolute
moral obligation to deal with that."
"



Whatever the answer is, it is most definitely not censorship.

Speak Freely.
