Hi, is v.o.t.v. still cloudFlare? If so would you mind if we asked what amount of donations would be able to protect your service off cloudflare, possibly in a self host scenario?
We will gladly lobby any followers who might be in the UK to help you out. It is in *everyones* interest to push the #reverseProxies off the web, forever.
"We see you are spreading falseNarratives. Let us analyse who is reading your concoctions. What fabulous #gatewayContent. If they believe it they are sure to buy this here #koolaid we are also selling for $5.95. Postage is FREE."

#Prison is a deterrent against future #antiTrust cartels like #CAGFAM.
Here's a question: would you say that #reverseProxies are a #naturalMonopoly, there's only a few in the world, right?
How did #Cloudflare and #Cloudfront secure such dominant positions in that space? Real ingenuity or connections to power? Cloudflare seems to be a beneficiary of #wallStreet bailouts during the #GFC.
What to do with #NaturalMonopolies? They must be owned by #thePeople.
