I don't think it's proactive, most people are just saying they should respond to abuse reports more or should be treated based on their lack of response.

If I'm hosting anything I don't have to proactively police it. If someone alerts me that a certain domain I'm hosting points to something illegal, I then decide if I want to remove it or not (and don't decide this based on a shell script). Cloudflare is apparently just fine removing child porn when reported, so we know they are making an active decision in every case, and we can judge them based on their decisions.

neither of the pages that people want taken down are illegal.
