Last December, a Spanish judge authorized LaLiga to block Cloudflare’s shared IP addresses to combat piracy. Thousands of innocent internet users were affected, prompting Cloudflare and cybersecurity group RootedCon to ask the court to overturn the order. A judge has now denied both requests, stating that no evidence was presented to show that blocking caused any damage.
This is about their right to block a range of IP addresses. I don’t think they’re suing for damages.
Yes but AFAIK they have that right because they argued they were losing a lot of money to pirates.
