I've just seen a news report
<https://torrentfreak.com/cloudflare-must-block-piracy-shield-domains-and-ip-addresses-across-its-service-241224/>
where an Italian court has ordered Cloudflare to block all Italian
users trying to access Piracy sites on their Piracy Shield system.
And give the government data on who tried to access these sites.
That sounds like the sort of thing (if successful) that would appeal
to all governments that want to control their populations.
