My understanding of the daily stormer issue was simply that they didn't want to provide their ddos protection for them. Daily stormer was free to find another provider. And there are tons of cdns and ddos protection providers.

So I don't see how what cloudflare did there is any different than a hosting service refusing to serve pornography companies or whatever other unsavory business.

Of course, I realize the controversy was really about consistency in applying their policies. But cloudflare didn't shut anyone down.

There's always the first to fall... First it was the Nazis and White Nationalist... then the "Alt Right" ... then they labelled anyone they didn't agree with "Alt Right" or "Alt Right Adjacent" ... Now they're coming for the moderates and "TERF" feminists...

It always starts with one point and never recedes to reasonable.

Now if they were a monopoly or oligopoly, I would see your concern.

Private companies have always had the right to refuse service.
