Azure joins the shameful group of companies that block domain fronting. https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=33572390I am still angry and disappointed by Cloudflare's decision to block domain fronting and drop Lantern as a customer in 2015. Lantern was one of the most effective Great Firewall bypass proxies at the time, and Cloudflare was expanding in China.

After blocking them, the CEO went on HN to accuse Lantern of exploiting Cloudflare and to argue that they were not a customer. https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=9234367That was obviously false because you need to have a Cloudflare zone configured for domain fronting to work. They were a customer as much as the targeted hate websites they strenuously defend.
