		weslleyskah 6 hours ago \| parent \| context \| favorite \| on: Cloudflare threatens Italy exit over €14M fine > The law requires internet service providers to block reported piracy sites within 30 minutes. AGCOM insists that Cloudflare comply with these demands through its public DNS service, 1.1.1.1. When Cloudflare allegedly failed to do so, the regulator imposed a fine of over €14 million. €14 million? What the hell is this desperate witch hunt on piracy lately?
