IP address blocking banned in Austria after court ordered ISP to block Cloudflare IP's
IP address blocking is now banned in Austria after ISPs were told to block innocent Cloudflare customers under a pirate site blocking order.
"We will block Cloudflare as they protect piracy sites and must be shut down!!!" - Austrian copyright court, clueless

I don't think it is blocked, just down at the moment.
That error message says that TPB's servers are down.
Can someone elaborate, i dont get it
It's in the first paragraph.
In 2022, rightsholders obtained permission in Austria to block several pirate site domains and a list of IP addresses that actually belonged to Cloudflare. ISPs had no choice but to comply with the court's instructions which took out countless Cloudflare customers in Austria. According to reviews conducted by local telecoms regulator TKK, the IP address blocking violated net neutrality regulations and will no longer be allowed.
In other words, only domain blocking will be allowed, IP blocking will not be permitted, and cloudflare IPs must be unblocked again.
I wonder if we'll ever see people who know what they're doing legislate this stuff. This is just pathetic. They couldn't even hit the right target.
Kinda based. Fuck cloudflare basically monopolizing internet access.
Did anyone even bother to check out the article? Cloudflare is being allowed again since the ban broke the rules of net neutrality... It's the IP blocking methods that are being outlawed.
Yes, but I'm just throwing some shade at cloudflare.
Right. As I started building out my fossdom on my domain and using cloudflared tunnels. I thought if anything happened with cloudflare that I’d be completely out. So now they only manage my dns and I use caddy instead. Don’t agree with monopolies.
Why is Cloudflare to blame...?
