Cloudflare provided a server for “two massive manga piracy sites that distribute over 4,000 manga titles without permission and rack up 300 million views a month,” the publishers said.

At issue in the lawsuit was whether Cloudflare was the main entity in charge of pirated manga distribution.

People believing in public pressure and grass roots should understand that these don't work.

Power works, and it depends on what's possible and what's not. Surveillance and censorship over these means is possible, takes power and makes one more powerful. Hence it happens.

Technical affect on social matters is slow, we're seeing it only now. Want different trees - build different genes.

No conspiracy is required.
