It's really interesting that CloudFlare accepted X (Twitter) as a client knowing the fights Musk gets into.
They probably gave a high quote that got paid anyway.
Hopefully in cold hard cash upfront.

Hosting Kiwi Farms wasn't likely to get Cloudflares ASN null-routed by the 7th most populous state on Earth though. There's the potential for serious collateral damage to Cloudflares business here if Brazil calls their bluff.
Null-routing Cloudflare is also going to do a fair bit of collateral damage to the people of the 7th most populous state on Earth though. Considering the initial order of the Brazilian judiciary regarding VPN, this is almost certainly what Twitter hopes to achieve here.
i doubt it will require null-routing Cloudflare..
they will probably get notified to block twitter in Brazil and will likely comply.

#13Looks like they only use it in Brazil, everywhere else seems to resolve to regular Twitter IPs
Then our Supreme Court will have to issue a legal order to Cloudflare, which has representatives in Brazil, to block X nation-wide.
Blocking Cloudflare itself wouldn't make any sense as our country systems themselves would get hurt and I don't think Cloudflare will deny such order.

#14In tomorrow’s news, Cloudflare blocked by Brazil.
I'd say it's more likely that Cloudflare will receive a legal order to block X in Brazil.

Cloudflare was happy to host Kiwi Farms for a long time. I doubt they care what Musk does.
MANY piracy websites and even 4chan use Cloudflare. That’s nothing compared to X/Twitter.

We really need to avoid a future where censorship is regarded as a virtue and monopolized transit providers are "cancelled" or shamed into being the judge/jury/executioner.
The far better solution is just to ignore stuff you don't agree with, go outside, and move on with life.

#19Good luck fighting countries, if Brazil is serious about this, it will be blocked again.

Free speech is not a law set in stone, in the US you can be a Nazi without any legal repercussions, here in Brazil you cannot. I'd like to keep it that way.
Just a short history lesson: Nazi's were the ones that burnt the books.
You're welcome!
