Cloudflare CEO Bans Dailystormer, calls people behind Dailystormer "assholes"
You know they've gotta be bad if even Cloudflare is sick of their bullshit.
"My rationale for making this decision was simple: the people behind the Daily Stormer are assholes and I’d had enough. " Why We Terminated Daily Stormer Cloudflare CEO on Terminating Service to Neo-Nazi Site: 'The Daily Stormer Are Assholes' The Cloudflare CEO's letter to the Cloudflare team: Team: Earlier today Cloudflare terminated the account of the Daily Stormer. We’ve stopped proxying their traffic and stopped answering DNS requests for their sites. We’ve taken measures to ensure that they cannot sign up for Cloudflare’s services again. This was my decision. Our terms of service reserve the right for us to terminate users of our network at our sole discretion. My rationale for making this decision was simple: the people behind the Daily Stormer are assholes and I’d had enough. Let me be clear: this was an arbitrary decision. It was different than what I’d talked talked with our senior team about yesterday. I woke up this morning in a bad mood and decided to kick them off the Internet. I called our legal team and told them what we were going to do. I called our Trust & Safety team and had them stop the service. It was a decision I could make because I’m the CEO of a major Internet infrastructure company. Having made that decision we now need to talk about why it is so dangerous. I’ll be posting something on our blog later today. Literally, I woke up in a bad mood and decided someone shouldn’t be allowed on the Internet. No one should have that power. [Cloudflare employee’s name redacted] asked after I told him what we were going to do: “Is this the day the Internet dies?” He was half joking, but I actually think it’s an important question. It’s important that what we did today not set a precedent. The right answer is for us to be consistently content neutral. But we need to have a conversation about who and how the content online is controlled. We couldn’t have that conversation while the Daily Stormer site was using us. Now, hopefully, we can. I’ll be publishing a blog post with all our thoughts on this issue in a few hours. Until then, I’d ask that you not talk about this externally. —- Matthew Prince Co-founder & CEO |

Translation:
"We have totally exhausted our efforts trying to protect Daily Stormer from DDOS attacks. The bots are too much for us to handle at this point, but we don't want to show weakness so I'll just say we kicked them out for political reasons rather than technical." |

The dailystormer situation is just a symbol of how the planet repudiates the hatred you, and them, want to force upon us. |

"According to Prince, the last straw wasn?t an official post, but a comment by one of the site?s readers. ?The thing that ultimately upset me was that on their forums, they were saying ?Hey CloudFlare is one of us,? which we aren?t,? Prince said. ?So I got tired of it and pulled the plug.? Prince elaborated more on the reasoning in a blog post on CloudFlare?s site."
The Daily Stormer just lost the most important company defending it |

I don't know how I feel about this... On one hand, it's his service and he can do whatever he wants. On the other hand, I use his service. And so does gfy. Don't want him getting a bug up his ass one day about my freedom of speech. I don't agree with anything that has to do with dailystormer or them alt-right fags, but I have "fought for their freedom" to say and feel whatever the fuck they want.
