| Worldwide internet infrastructure service Cloudflare serves millions of customers and provides a variety of connectivity and privacy features to the general public. Internet users can take advantage of the company's open DNS resolver 1.1.1.1, for example, or use its Ethereum and IPFS gateways to access content on these decentralized web services. Takedown Notices When it comes to copyright complaints, Cloudflare makes a clear distinction between content it permanently hosts, and services where it acts as a pass through. In the latter case, DMCA takedown notices are typically forwarded to customers' hosting providers. This means that, when rightsholders send Cloudflare a takedown request for Pirate Bay content, Cloudflare doesn't interfere with its CDN services.

The group is largely managed by the Motion Picture Association, which has requested many DMCA subpoenas on its behalf over the past few years. New Subpoena Round After the MPA's former Chief of Global Content Protection Jan Van Voorn left for a new opportunity, ACE went quiet on the subpoena front. The legal requests were always signed by Van Voorn, so someone else had to fill this role going forward. But who? The answer arrived late last week when several new subpoena requests were docketed at a California federal court. The requests are similar to those seen before, now signed by Dani Bacsa, MPA's Deputy Chief of Content Protection. Through the subpoenas, ACE asks Cloudflare and the .To domain registry (Tonic) for information related to several domain names.
