CLOUDFLARE: THE DIGITAL SHIELD AGAINST PIRACY AND CRIME
For weeks, LaLiga has been alerting Cloudflare about the use of its services for illegal content streaming, sexual exploitation, child pornography, scams and other crimes. Instead of taking action, Cloudflare has become the perfect accomplice, actively protecting these criminals.
These are not massive or indiscriminate blocks. Each IP and domain is analyzed before acting. However, Cloudflare deceives even its legitimate clients, assigning them the same IPs as criminal organizations. Not only do they cover up piracy, they also protect child pornography content (reported last Monday to the Spanish Police), scams, pimping and other illegal activities, from which they also benefit financially.
Cloudflare doesn't just enable piracy: it makes money by protecting those who steal content and illegally exploit intellectual property. They knew what was happening, were warned, and decided to do nothing.
The reality is clear: Cloudflare is part of the problem, and its legitimate customers should demand explanations from this company for being used as digital shields for crime.
Jordi PĂ©rez Colomer, your Prisa group also suffers the consequences of this, find out where the criminals are.
