I've been thinking a bit more about this. Cloudflare should really consider doing this. What's more is that they are in a prime position to do this from a technology perspective too. The already have DDOS protection that does browser testing to make sure you aren't a bot. The could repurposed that by IP block. They also have enough engineers who understand which companies own which IP blocks. I'm envisioning a banner at the top of my Cloudflare account that simply says 'save the internet and participate in protecting net neutrality'. When I click on that I have three options: - Yes. Opt in. - No. Opt out. - Custom. Yes. Opt in: Cloudflare automatically throttle all blacklisted IP blocks. Users visiting from those IP blocks are presented with a page that explains why they are about to be throttled and tells them how to protest I.e. contact your congress representative, etc. The user is then throttled. No. You don't participate. Custom: you get to tweak the blacklist. You can whitelist ranges, in case you have important business customers that you don't want to piss off. You also get to select which of the different core blocked ranges you want to include. I.e. maybe there is a range for Comcast customers as well as Comcast offices and I find it cruel to penalise the Comcast customers, so I can unchecked them. As an added bonus you can opt in to a 'I want to publicise my site'. If you opt in to the protest then your site gets listed as a participant. Cloudflare can feature the big companies on the user pre-throttling warning page I mentioned earlier. They can also randomly show a list of smaller sites that are participating as well. They could also keep a leaderboard of the numbers of throttled users per site.
