^^^that is awesome

I don't think what Konda was describing was a 'loophole' though, more just the impracticality of removing infringing content that can be automatically re-cached at any time.

props to companies that work around that technical limitation like the one you linked above. while they may not be able to effectively remove content on a technical level, CDN's can demand it on an ethical and contract level exactly like this one
Even LeaseWeb in the Netherlands forwards DMCA's to their customers and if after 2 notices of no response/non compliance the request is elevated and content taken down. This has been my expreience, it pays to be polite & vigilant. LeaseWeb will also nullroute the IP of the infringing customer, taking them offline, if they are a difficult non compliant customer.

Cloudflare gives you the persons hosting contact info if they don't take down, it's their policy:

"When presented with a valid complaint we can provide who the web hosting provider is for the site in question." This is at the bottom of their DMCA policy page here https://support.cloudflare.com/hc/en...MCA-complaint-
