    This haves nothing to do with the article. Cloudflare overall haves too much power on the Internet. On August 31st 2022, Matthew Prince (Cloudflare’s CEO) released a statement defending his role as a service provider and not a regulatory body. But 3 days later, Cloudflare blocks a website called Kiwifarms. You maybe thinking, “Wait, that goes against his first statement he made.”. You’re right. I ask you, do you want a company like that to have so much power over the Internet?

      They can be service provider and can stop providing those services to, well, basically anyone. It’s not like they literally blocked them off the internet.
