Last December, a Spanish judge authorized LaLiga to block Cloudflare’s shared IP addresses to combat piracy. Thousands of innocent internet users were affected, prompting Cloudflare and cybersecurity group RootedCon to ask the court to overturn the order. A judge has now denied both requests, stating that no evidence was presented to show that blocking caused any damage.
Yeah it doesn’t make any sense. They’re just blocking pretty big parts of the internet all at once, of which most was probably not even illegal content to begin with, and might have been actual legitimate businesses that are now blocked from selling anything online there.
