From the article above:
> In other words, Archive.is's nameservers throw a hissy fit and return a bogus IP when Cloudflare doesn't leak your geolocation info to them via the optional EDNS client subnet feature. The owner of Archive.is has plainly admitted this with a questionable claim (in my opinion) about the lack of EDNS information causing him "so many troubles."
Not sure how it’s causing him so many troubles.

The allegation is that Cloudflare's in the (anycast) CDN business, hence its customers do not require EDNS (ECS) to be steered to the geographically-nearest server, and so, they naturally want to kill EDNS (ECS) and that privacy's just an excuse. As a consumer, I agree with what Cloudflare's doing (though they could potentially engineer a solution to send fake/blind EDNS (ECS)). Wearing my developer hat, I also agree with archive.is' decision to stage a protest.
