> You can just... use the Internet. Register your own domain, pay for your own hosting, or buy some servers, take out come ads. It's the Internet, you can still do anything.

Until CloudFlare -- or MasterCard -- bans you because they don't like what you say.

No matter -- just start your own upstream services provider or credit card processing company.

Can't wait to go down this road.

Hey you don't like it. Just become a doctor and fix yourself. Healthcare isn't a right.

Hey you don't like it. Just get you own water, filter it, and clean it. Clean water isn't a right.

Is this really the answer?

Sure, or invent a new way to pay for things. Or stop saying things that get you banned.

Nobody has a right to a CDN or a credit card or a domain name.
