Oh come on, can we stop calling hosting a service as "backing" things. Whatever happened to the idea of providing a service disclaiming of who you're providing a service to?
- fxtentacle 4y agoI agree. There was a lot of outrage when a religious bakery refused to make a wedding cake for a gay couple. The argument was that they should serve every customer, even if they disagree. But now we're requesting precisely the opposite from Cloudflare.
- jpoesen 4y agoThese two things are very much not alike. The key difference: when the baker refused to provide service to a protected class based, they were discriminating. White supremacists (not a protected class) being refused service is quite different and not at all comparable.
- h2odragon 4y agoWhen its OK for a public business to discriminate against "some people" because they're "not a protected class," we've lost the point. How much longer are you a "protected class?"
- jpoesen 4y agoNot sure what this has to do with _me_, and I never stated whether or not I'm OK with Cloudflare's policy. I merely pointed out that the given comparison was invalid.
