I had it running in front of my Matrix server. With the default configuration it gave a lot of false positives, leaving friends out of the server. Also, most of my users use VPNs regularly, so geo-blocking was a hassle too. I tuned it a bit, but kept giving me headaches, so I ended up disabling it. I’ll spend more time tuning it someday.

I wish it was only football streams. They are blocking a ton of unrelated sites as a colateral damage. Most webs behind Cloudflare are blocked and stop working most weekends. This is a horrible violation to the network neutrality, and we should do something about it. If you think you are safe because this is still not happening in your country, think again. There’s a lot of people interested in this kind of censorship, and what’s happening in Spain sets a precedent and opens the floodgates for the rest of the countries (or, in this case, megacorps) to do the same.

Between chat control and this, things are getting out of hand FAST. We have to do something.
