Anybody around here visit Kiwi Farms? If you did or do, it's lights out now.

"Reversing course under growing public pressure, major tech security company Cloudflare announced Saturday that it will stop protecting the Kiwi Farms website, best known as a place for stalkers to organize hacks, online campaigns and real-world harassment," The Washington Post reported. "Cloudfare chief executive Matthew Prince, who this past week published a lengthy blog post justifying the company’s services defending Kiwi Farms, told The Washington Post he changed his mind not because of the pressure but a surge in credible violent threats stemming from the site."

"This is an extraordinary decision for us to make and, given Cloudflare's role as an Internet infrastructure provider, a dangerous one that we are not comfortable with. However, the rhetoric on the Kiwifarms site and specific, targeted threats have escalated over the last 48 hours to the point that we believe there is an unprecedented emergency and immediate threat to human life unlike we have previously seen from Kiwifarms or any other customer before."

Not a chance. It's regarded as a place for trans-phobics to mingle. Would you know anyone like that on this or that site?

"Cloudflare blocked service to Kiwi Farms, a notoriously transphobic forum with users that stalked, harassed and doxed vulnerable people since it started in 2013, on Saturday, according to an announcement made by Cloudflare co-founder and CEO Matthew Prince. The decision follows weeks of public pressure for Cloudflare to drop its protection service to the site"

From CloudFlare...

"Cloudflare provides security services to Kiwifarms, protecting them from DDoS and other cyberattacks. We have never been their hosting provider."

The decision was made after CloudFlare initially gave them a thumbs up only days before their change of mind.

Blocking Kiwifarms

We have blocked Kiwifarms. Visitors to any of the Kiwifarms sites that use any of Cloudflare's services will see a Cloudflare block page and a link to this post.

Is that someone who is afraid to use a matter-transporter? I don't blame them, they're scary as frak. Also, if your matter is transported, that arrives at the destination is merely a copy of you.
