The famous antipiratía shield that became sadly famous in Italy, seems to have arrived in Spain without warning. Movistar, O2 and Digi have supposedly begun to Block Cloudflare to stop the IPTV pirates liststaking ahead websites and legal services, such as TDTChannels.
It all started a few days ago, when numerous websites used Cloudflare began to suffer connection cuts in operators such as Movistar, O2 and Digi.
Cloudflare is a universally used Internet service worldwide, which offers protection against more private and safe dns, and other things.
TDTChannels, affected by the blockade to Cloudflare
Many websites and Internet services hire Cloudflare to protect themselves, but apparently, according to LaLiga accusations, Cloudflare prevents blocking some IPTV pirates lists.
For two weeks, curiously in the hours that there are football matches, websites that use Cloudflare are inaccessible to Movistar users, O2, and Digi. Including media, websites of all kinds, or the app TDTChannelsas confirmed in X.
TDTChannels is an app that brings together, in a single place, thousands of channels in open, including all of the DTT. It is also available from a website.
It is a completely legal app, and like many others, it has been affected by cloudflare blockages.
Movitar, Digi and O2 have responded by ensuring that it was a failure that they are already correcting. But the fact that it affects three different operators, and that it is triggered in the game hours, is suggesting that it is a blockade of cloudflare IP addresses that have gone hand in hand, blocking websites and services that have nothing to do with pirate football.
If so, it is a serious fact, because it is not justifiable that for defending the economic interests of a handful of private companies, other entities that have nothing to do with IPTV pirates lists are harmed. Not even football.
At the moment TDTChannels works without problems again, but there are doubts about What will happen next weekend. Surely the operators will refine the filters, but this type of IP addresses blocking giving priority to football companies before users, is not the best solution.
