Ask HN: Politics Blog Cloudflare Subpoena

Unfortunately the post disappeared from Facebook and the person is uncontactable.

I'm unfortunately not that important as a customer for Cloudflare to care. But it is rather chilling that they won't defend free speech.

In the future, consider hosting with the following:

* Flokinet (long standing host standing for freespeech, very seriously presented)

* Njalla (created by PirateBay founder, will actually troll any copyright trolls, but seems reliable)

* Cockbox (a silly but also likely reliable option)

Also it seems that you'd have been fine using Cloudflare without giving them any identifying details - when I signed up way long ago, they didn't ask for anything...

Some notes:

* Flokinet offers DDOS protection.

* Njalla offers Domain Registry.

* cockbox is colocated through Flokinet.

* Probably don't use cockbox...

Thanks. I'm with Njalla for the domain now. I didn't imagine I'd ever need to go to these lengths for a political blog.

No jurisdiction is going to let you claim freedom of speech is a valid defence against libelling a private citizen.
