Found this today on hackernews and I think it is time for me to look for alternatives to cloudflare if their CEO will decide to cut a whole country over fines

    So your argument is that one of the biggest DNS resolvers should just bow to censorship imposed by a single nation? I’m not really getting what you think they should be doing about Italy’s demand. Are you saying they should just pay the fines and keep doing business there?

        I am, yeah. Like I say, I’m just not understanding what they’re suggesting Cloudflare should be doing differently in this case, other than not invoking Vance and Musk (which granted is pretty gross to do).

          I think it’s the contradiction of trying to fight censor ship while also praising the US government, who is in a stream of heavy censorship. just look at that 60 min episode.

          I think the point is that cloudflare is doing the right thing in this specific case, and the CEO is a douchebag anyway.

      They’re saying they should do what they’re doing just without the sucking up to fascists part.
