I don’t see the need to vilify Cloudflare. So far, they have shown nothing but respect towards net neutrality, fighting against bad internet practices (like Google), and even standing up to ISPs and governments to protect their users, whether they’re pirates or not.

They have been around long enough (10+ years) to let you judge them and their services through their actions, not rumours.

Gabe Newell quit working for Microsoft before Windows 3.0 was released. Valve is an employee-owned private company, Gabe Newell ensured that even after his passing, Valve stays true to their roots as long as there’s the majority of employees sharing his ideals.

A boob, a butt, or some violence like combat footage or the like are all fine, but I don’t want porn on my feed like at all.

Likewise, but I want porn and none the violence. Make love, not war! 🥵

Did anyone even bother to check out the article? Cloudflare is being allowed again since the ban broke the rules of net neutrality… It’s the IP blocking methods that are being outlawed.

A friendly reminder; Please don’t forget to take your time and step away from Kbin whenever you need a break. Your mental health is just as important, if not most important, for the project to succeed.

Remember when some people said we’re nuts thinking Google will try to ban ad blockers with manifest v3? Yeah.

I don’t agree with Brave’s business model, and the shady stuff they did, but the enemy of my enemy is my friend.

In case someone actually ponders this, Mullvad means mole in Swedish.

You absolutely can tell what’s happening by reading the source code. They are using a listener and a delay for when ontimeupdate promise is not met, which timeouts the entire connection for 5 full seconds.

It’s in the first paragraph.

In 2022, rightsholders obtained permission in Austria to block several pirate site domains and a list of IP addresses that actually belonged to Cloudflare. ISPs had no choice but to comply with the court’s instructions which took out countless Cloudflare customers in Austria. According to reviews conducted by local telecoms regulator TKK, the IP address blocking violated net neutrality regulations and will no longer be allowed.

In other words, only domain blocking will be allowed, IP blocking will not be permitted, and cloudflare IPs must be unblocked again.
