In the US landlords do have some liability for criminal conduct on their property whether committed by tenants or others.

Most web services do have strict restrictions on conduct. This is a far cry from vigilantism.

It’s messed up for Cloudfare to wash their hands of any responsibility here.

I'll tell you what the difference is, that no one ever points out...

In the case of a crime being committed in a hotel room, the criminal is the nuisance. The hotel operator gladly participates with law enforcement to remove the nuisance. In the case of something as ridiculous as these plaintiff wedding dress makers claiming "intellectual property" over a white dress, the plaintiff is the nuisance, not the people they are accusing.
