So all it takes is for a malicious actor to engage in false flag operations against me and CF will completely walk back their abuse policies and terminate my services, even if I act the best I can to moderate and remove the offending content?
I'm not saying what happened on Kiwi Farms was a false flag because I don't know that, but neither do you. It's hard to process just how antithetical your actions today are compared to your words 3 days ago.
Excellent; since you're concerned about it, it should be quite easy to provide that evidence, right? Personally, I would settle for quotes with private information redacted (usually I'd ask for archive.org copies or such, but in the case of doxxing I agree that's not ideal).
That's fair, actually; if that is the case then I very much hope to see a post in the near future explaining what happened as soon as it's no longer an active matter for the police.
> Just rang up a couple of lads down in Belfast and
asked them to plant bombs in all of those places.
also, 3 armed men will be at each place, waiting.
Seems to have been moderated/scrubbed from the keffals thread but I do see replies referencing it.
The post was screenshotted and posted to Twitter almost instantly and it seems that the post itself was quickly moderated and the user banned.
Seems like a straw that broke the camel’s back situation, but it’s very odd how CloudFlare is talking about “moderation” when it seems as though KiwiFarms quickly took care of moderating it themselves.
And fwiw, I had no idea what KiwiFarms was before this week.
I know you are concerned, or at least that you wrote that you were concerned, but given that it is a real concern why do it then, what do you accomplish? whatever threat that was supposedly being organized will still come to fruition, no?

Even if it wasn't a false flag, moderators deleted the offending posts.

No. The post alludes to active investigations concerning, among other things, bomb threats. One doesn’t air evidence in that situation.
Hmm... Why not, exactly?

So, can we get any details on what was actually said on the forum rather than just "escalating threats"?
From what I heard there was a false flag bomb threat
For reference sake, here’s the post:

If true, an ingenious way to de-cloudflare someone, which will be used many times again.

I wouldn't give the trolls trading screenshots too much credit here. I assume Cloudflare is a little more savvy than that.

Nothing new for KF. What is new is the attention is now on Cloudflare
