With assistance from Spain's leading ISPs, LaLiga continues to block pirate sites, Cloudflare, and thousands of innocents caught in the crossfire. Legal action by Cloudflare and hacking collective RootedCON tried to bring the chaos to an end but their requests were dismissed last month. Meanwhile, a non-profit group is demanding that all ISPs participate in nationwide blocking.

We hope cloudflare shut down over this. They are basically a giant botnet and protect fash. The internet would be better without them.

Edit: Okay, we were slighty incorrect over the fash part, when pushed and seemingly only when pushed will they block them or shut them down. It's true they still allow themselves to be used as a botnet though.
