Note that the CUII blocking process is now based on court orders instead of arbitrary corporate decisions: https://lina.sh/blog/cuii-gives-up

> Sadly, there's a small catch: the old blocks stay.

Not true. The article you linked states that the current nefarious block list still exists, it just isn't growing any more.

How can they tell the difference between the CUII giving up and the CUII just saying that they have given up once they successfully found a way to conceal the blocks from the people checking?

There's no need to tell the difference between those, because the CUII has neither given up nor have they said that they have given up. They'll continue to block the kinds of websites they've been blocking and add new ones to the list, and they'll do so under court order, because the kinds of websites they've been blocking are the ones they're legally required to block. They've been accused of overblocking, but only in the weak sense of uselessly blocking domains that had already been taken down by other means. That will continue to happen with the courts in the loop, because there might be a takedown between the submission of evidence and the court order coming into effect.

Both the submitted article and the above link are from the same blog and author, just five months apart. I was pointing out the newer blog post containing updated information. It also indicates a success of the author’s activism, which is to be welcomed.

Doctor have any evidence that the claim is false?
