Even more concerning, on the surface it looks like there could be some cooperation by Cloudflare. If you look at the list of domains that contain an A record for that IP, it's almost all torrent sites and mirrors. Could they have placed all these domains behind that IP for a purpose like this?

Why wouldn't they try to limit collateral damage by censorious governments? Are you suggesting they instead hold their other customers hostage?
