    Cloudflare is a business. Businesses protect their profits. Online casinos are scams subject to regular massive DDOS by their scumbag competitors and by people who want them shut down. Cloudflare wasn’t going to eat that loss anymore so they kicked them to the curb to save money. Also the time frame wasn’t 24 hours. More like a month. This makes me suspect the scamming casino’s story more.

      That wasn’t it, Cloudflare didn’t like they way the casino was using Cloudflare’s IPs, since they were getting banned in multiple countries.

      Cloudflare only offers byoIP as part of a business package, and that comes with extortionate pricing.

      You say that like it’s ok to do shitty things as long as “you’re a business protecting profits”
