Cloudflare Starts Blocking Pirate Sites For UK Users - That's a Pretty Big Deal (torrentfreak.com)

Cloudflare has become the first internet intermediary beyond local residential ISPs, to block access to pirate sites in the UK. Users attempting to access certain pirate sites are greeted with 'Error 451 - Unavailable for Legal Reasons'. In theory, ISP blocking should prevent UK users from even seeing this notice, but a combination of Cloudflare's blocking mechanism and choices made by some VPN users results in a piracy dead end.

Welp, guess Netflix and their 720p stream for the price of 4K, wins.
