They're threatening to remove servers from Italy. They're explicitly NOT threatening to block Italians from being able to access sites through Cloudflare.
I have my fair share of problems with CF, but I assume here that they're threatening higher latency (i.e. requests from Italian users would have to go to a neighboring country to be routed) rather than blocking.
- NewJazz 9mo agoAlso Italy would see (very slightly) lower GDP because data centers would have less demand from CF.
- NorwegianDude 9mo agoHow freaking expensive do you think infrastructure is? It's not that expensive, and certainly not anywhere close to the point where it would make a noticeable impact on GDP.
- NewJazz 9mo agoEvery little bit counts. At cloudflares scale it could be the difference between a DC having to close up shop or not.
