Whatever happened to:

"the Internet detects censorship as damage, and routes around it" and

"the answer to speech you don't agree with is more speech"?

I guess, like "don't be evil", those concepts have ended up on the trash heap...

We created too many silos online.

Too few companies have far too much power

Those concepts are extremely important, as long as they don´t interfere with profits.

Go daddy suspended their registration, then they went to Google who also suspended it. So they went to a Russian host, all the while they had cloudlfare protection. Then they said they had cloudlfare protection because cloudlfare supported them, thus taking cloudlfare from an independent, neutral party to being involved and a supporter. So cloudlfare withdrew services from them and hackers DDoS the site to oblivion.
