From a different case a few years ago, a good description of Contempt of Parliament and the power of the Searjent at Arms in such a situation - "Mike Ashley: Could Sports Direct boss be jailed in Big Ben?": https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-derbyshire-35783408
Hi; I work for Cloudflare so I just wanted to address some of these points.
We have sites of all platforms and types which are in need of caching services for a variety of reasons. We have e-commerce sites wanting to cache anonymous page views to improve conversion rates through improved speeds, through to services wanting to accelerate dynamic content using our Railgun optimiser.
As a reverse proxy, we do offer an incredibly powerful DDOS mitigation service. Over the past few months we have seen a dramatic increase in DDOS attacks - including multiple DDOS attacks which are greater than 400Gbps. Whilst not all sites will face such attacks, we do offer a service for those who are in need of protection (either as a precaution or to mitigate an active attack).
Our WAF can help protect against other such attacks from SQL Injection to XSS and beyond, for example; we have a rule to protect against XML-RPC attacks. We're constantly improving our feature set and adding more; one such product we're particularly excited to reveal is our Traffic Control solution which can help add extra layers of security to APIs and websites.
Hi; CloudFlare will continue to offer the discounted rate to domains already in your account; any new domains added to the Pro plan will be charged the full $20. If you have any questions, please reach out to our support desk.
Sorry, not good enough for me. You should have put some limits. Honestly, I have a bunch of domains you collect $5 from me monthly each, but I won't pay $20, no way, but I'm sure those don't cost you more than a $0.25/mo as they get no traffic! So, from customers like me, you will lose money, and I'm sure most domains are low traffic, and people use your service just in case! So, you're not making a smart decision!
