Fine, what’s the new name?
It’s their right and all, but I don’t want to hear how their international sales have dropped and how profits are down.
"Members of the Recording Industry Association of Japan had taken legal action in the U.S. to demand information on Hikari No Akari’s operator from California-based Cloudflare, whose content delivery network the site had used. […>
“We’ll use information that Cloudflare will disclose to hold the website operator responsible and take other legal action,” an RIAJ spokesperson said."
Obligatory “Fuck Cloudflare”.
I’m not sure whether I place the blame solely on Cloudflare. I could be mistaken but my belief is that any US-based company in their position would’ve been forced to cave.
Yeah, I agree with you. I should have elaborated in my comment. I’m not too opposed to Cloudflare (I even use them myself), but I sympathise with people who are concerned about how widely used Cloudflare is and that this risks making them a gatekeeper to the internet. My beef is more of an “all eggs in one basket” one, which feels especially relevant given that the recent (and in many cases, ongoing) Crowdstrike debacle was able to affect so many because of how the way enterprise level software often involves many eggs across not many baskets.
100% agree. We are on the same page.
Hey, you two quit having civil discourse right this instance! XD
That is most unfortunate. Hikari no Akari has always been a favourite.
I’d like for piracy sites to move to the darknet from now to make like more difficult for pursuers
