The point of the matter is services can host questionable content and remove it to comply with the law or services can based on their terms of service remove content "as they see fit."

The question remains, when will a service come for your content? I'm not advocating for hate speech or any illegal activities, I just think cloudflare strapped on their skis and are now on their way down the classic slippery slope.
