Wow. You're both all over the place and wrong.
DDoSing doesn't "violate the first amendment" anymore than a loud bar violates my first amendment rights.
The concept of free speech and the first amendment aren't the same thing. The first amendment, in part, attempts to stop the government from violating its citizens' free speech.
Yelling over you does not violate your rights. Not giving you something does not violate your rights.
Another right the first amendment guarantees is the right to assemble. That means I can associate with whomever I want. That means Cloudflare can associate with whomever they want. They choose not to associate with 8chan. That is their choice and their right. We cannot force Cloudfare to associate with 8chan.
Also, what does Charlottesville have to do with anything here? Are you trying to say the guy running over others is guilty of violating the "shouters" first amendment rights? And that they should have predicted that "shouting at white nationalists" means they would get run over? And how does that remind you of Cloudflare not hosting 8chan? Did they run a car through the server?
Everything is covered by the first amendment.
So. It's a real good look for CloudFlare because they're no longer the company that associates with white nationalists.
