It's weak because people who are connected to power don't need to have a meltdown on a public forum and beg for help.

I have no feelings about either Cloudflare or Italy. I doubt I've thought about Cloudflare for more than 5 seconds at a time before this. I also am not informed enough about this particular issue, some types of censorship are good, others are bad.

That's all besides the point though, the point is that a multi-billion dollar corporation is demonising (as in, actually posting AI slop of Italians as demons) legitimate European authorities and publically asking a bully government to coerce a smaller country into submission.
