Racketeering is easier and more profitable than actual services. Shocking how often "gatekeepers" fall to the temptation.

Speaking of racketeering, it's an enlightening experience to search for "stresser" or "booter" providers (euphemisms for DDoS-as-a-Service) and look up their NS records to see who helping them ward off competitors DDoS attacks and keep their origin servers hidden. 9 times out of 10 it's Cloudflare, with the few exceptions being DDoS-Guard, who more or less specialize in facilitating crime.

Sounds like OP is a casino and plays domain games to avoid regulatory interest. Recommend reading article carefully before reacting to the headline. Hopefully Cloudflare provides a perspective.

But for $10k a month cloudflare is ok with that? Either it's acceptable or it's not, there is no way that this looks good for cloudflare either way.
