Cloudflare is actively disabling access to some pirate site URLs on its network, informing visitors that the requested pages are unavailable for legal reasons. While these types of 'HTTP 451' error messages are relatively rare, they are nothing more than Cloudflare complying with its legal obligations under the DMCA.

Yeah, but they are facing the same crap in Italy and now France too. Because they lost in Germany, now copyright holders are taking legal action in different jurisdictions in the hope of getting a more favourable ruling (to them). My concern is that over time it'll be harder and harder to find a DNS provider that'll correctly resolve piracy-related sites.
