The author mentions he doesn't want us to judge him on his past. But I don't think teenagers are that different from adults so I doubt there is any real basis for that. He'd probably still do it if that was the best way to make money. If he had not written that, I probably wouldn't have given it any second thought though. It's a good article just don't tell people what not to think they might just start to think what you didn't want them to.

I strongly agree with the points made. What Cloudflare is doing is terrible. They should remove this protection and publish an apology to the victims before a court decides to think the same.
