Do ISPs actually do any of this? Does any ISP ever do any of this? I don't think so. Also, no one knows what was the particular thing that pissed off Cloudflare

Do ISPs actually do any of this? Does any ISP ever do any of this? I don't think so. Also, no one knows what was the particular thing that pissed off Cloudflare, because it's a black box.
I'll say it again: centralizing the internet around a single company is a terrible idea. Especially so when said company terminates TLS and thus has access to unencrypted traffic.
- jbluepolarbear 6y agoISPs don’t because they don’t care. Until there’s a legal or monetary reason to do so ISP providers will do the bare minimum. My spouse worked for a large American ISP for would hear all the time that apartment complexes would not be able to access certain services because one user did something that got the IP blocked and nobody cared because it wasn’t their problem.
