@neurovagrant I take it they seek out customers whose existence is the basis of your job. Any near-term prospects of lawfare on that basis?

@davidfetter Ayup, they protect some of the worst of the worst. In fact, their products are *designed* to do that. They're too big to hold accountable, though.

@neurovagrant @davidfetter It's a big stack, so if there are things that can be better handled at other layers, that can make sense.

But I know they've given in to multiple requests by now for blocks/subpoenas/or other stuff like that. And there's that thing (haven't dug deep) they're doing re the sheer volume of LLM scraping. Are they still pushing petitioners to DNS or some other layer when it makes sense for CloudFlare to act?

@neurovagrant I was kinda hoping that their outreach to those actors, complete with the fact that they've designed products whose job it is to attract them, might constitute criminal conspiracy.

I don't know the details of what they've been up to, but I am confident you would not so much as hint at this if you weren't on very solid evidentiary ground.
