Cloudflare Says It Won’t Ban 8chan, a Hotbed for Terrorist Manifestos

Over the weekend, a white supremacist killed 20 people in an El Paso Walmart. Before the terrorist attack, he posted a so-called manifesto to the anonymous message board 8chan. He was the third shooter to do so recently; the others were the Christchurch and Poway synagogue attackers. In response, internet infrastructure company Cloudflare is facing renewed pressure to stop providing their services to 8chan, which if removed, would likely make it harder for the site administrators to keep the message board online.
Sunday, Cloudflare reiterated it is not planning to stop providing cybersecurity protection to 8chan.
