>>54776998Long story short, Kiwifarms began to (colloquially) doxx Keffals. This all started because Keffals was basically promoting people making hormonal treatments in their bathtubs(and if you the find recipes kiddos, please don't. If you don't precisely mix those ingredients together, the amount of hydrocarbons is one tiny mistake away from blowing you up.) Keffals allegedly began to receive hate mail and in-person harassment, so they went into hiding, but they kept posting information which led to Kiwifarms discovering them. Now, my understanding is a little messy, but I believe after they tracked her down to a hotel in Ireland(?), Keffals called upon Cloudflare to remove them from the internet, demanding that they be silenced permanently. Cloudflare obliged, basically striking the domain off the internet.
I don't condone doxxing in any way, and I personally view Kiwifarms as a hivemind of hatred, BUT I will also defend them to the end. What happened was retarded and KF has the right to exist, so long as they don't break laws(which they weren't really since all of the information was publicly available if you dug hard enough.) It was a rather scary indication of just how much power only a handful of corporations have, and what happens when they decide to no longer be overtly neutral.
(By the ways, Cloudflare has NOT taken down other similar websites, such as one I've read up on, which promotes suicide and driving others to suicide.)
