Cloudflare provide a service masking the IP address of the illegal content, really you know the answer to when them and not Chrome

  Okay and Chrome provide a service displaying the illegal content to the user. What now?

    Can you get closer to the source than chrome? Can you get closer to the source than cloudflare? Don't be disingenuous just because you like the company.

      It's disingenuous to believe there was any merit in blocking Cloudflare. Not only this was never going to solve the piracy problem but it was always more of a pissing context. Furthermore, La Liga somehow convinced the courts they should be able to pick IPs for all ISPs to block in real-time without any oversight from the law. Considering this is a private company this is just absolutely insane.

      Sure I can: whatever hosting service they are using. Find where they are hosted, e.g. AWS, and ask Amazon to bring a zone down for Spain for 5 hours.

        "find out where they are hosted" is doing a lot of lifting here against a massive company whose business model is hiding where end users are hiding.

          They reply to subpoenas just like everyone else. But that's too slow for the greedy fat cats at LaLiga.
