Except that Matthew Prince, Cloudflare's CEO, made that up out of thin air. There's no point where Daily Stormer said that Cloudflare supported their ideology. There's no record of this on the Internet. Can't find it, because nobody at the site ever made such claims. Stormer was kicked off of dozens of domain registrars and registries (GoDaddy, Google, Namecheap, Dreamhost, several national cctlds) in the same period -- none of them had to come up with a fake excuse like "people will think we support their ideology". Cloudflare does do infrastructure plenty of pedophile and Islamic terrorist sites, so now we can assume that they actually do support those as they aren't removing them from the service.
Cloudflare also didn't even bother telling that lie anymore when the dozens of sites they censored afterwards including 8chan were systematically barred from basic commerce.
