There is at least one CF customer who was doxxed by Kiwifarms after expressing displeasure with Cloudflare's initial decision. CF CEO (eastdakota) blocked this customer when he complained about it [1] So much for free speech + great customer service!

> CF CEO (eastdakota) blocked this customer when he complained about it

GossiTheDog was publicly attacking a deceased former employee of Cloudflare (Jaime Cochran), and eastdakota was offended: https://twitter.com/eastdakota/status/1565575185159204864

I'm pretty sure that's the reason why eastdakota blocked GossiTheDog – not because he was complaining about being doxxed by Kiwifarms

  • You got the name wrong. And the attack was against the GNAA "i'm a nazi" president and online shock-racist employed at Cloudflare at that time, nothing to do with their later death which is none of our business. It was also to remind that Weev claims there is a different GNAA-adjacent sympathizer employed at Cloudflare who is a personal ally to Stormfront.

    • Cochran is the person that both GossiTheDog and eastdakota were talking about. (I'm not sure about the Jaime vs Jamie spelling – my impression is "Jaime" is what she preferred at the time of her death, so I'm going to go with that – as to why eastdakota and the screen-shotted NBC News story spelled it "Jamie", I don't know – maybe just typos or autocorrect.)

      My point was that the person I was replying to was either misinformed or disingenuous about eastdakota's reasons for blocking GossiTheDog. I don't see the relevance of the rest of what you are saying to my point.
