This wasn't either of those things however, this was a company saying 4 days ago quite clearly that they would not act as a gatekeeper of speech(whatever it may be) on their protection services, due to some pretty clear implications that everyone should be protected by default from criminal activity(ddos attacks). Note that this was pretty much the speech made by cloudflare, I'm not saying they as a private company need to act as an utilities company/police/firefighter/etc, that's an entirely different discussion, but then then 3 days later going back on it?
