Cloudflare Terminates 8Chan

All the news from the peanut gallery and where all the nasty trash talk fails miserably.
It can get NSFW-ish here: you have been warned!

Nobody said anything about the constitution or 1st amendment.

But, thanks?

I guess you missed the part about hosting their bullshit and showing them the door. And, you seem confused about what Net Neutrality actually is.

Show me where that was discussed in this thread.

I know this is going to be difficult for you but try reading this:

Read it all and maybe you'll understand. Companies like Cloudflare were discussed as being part of net neutrality and in many cases a take down like this would have been forbidden. Just like Sinclair couldn't have throttled MSNBC, Cloudflare wouldn't have been able to take down a company because of a message they didn't produce within their overall product. Sinclair wouldn't have been legally able to ban MSNBC product on their network. Corporations like Cloudflare were discussed in their scope of the process. Sinclair would have been forbidden from throttling or blocking 8chan, MSNBC, the DNC convention just because they don't like the product.

If 8chan had paid 10x as much would they have been kicked off Cloudflare?
