Which is good. They're doing the right thing in general.

You cannot expect the entire world to have the same laws as the United States.

If laws of foreign countries specify that some content that's legal in the US has to be blocked in said country, it's 
100% Cloudflare's fault for wilfully and intentionally making such blocking impossible apart from blocking Cloudflare's 
entire network, affecting all the other customers, too.

You can't have your cake and eat it, too.  A simple Google Search for ESNI / Encrypted Client Hello (ECH) / DNS over 
HTTPS (DoH) is all Cloudflare on top.  They didn't just make it impossible by accident, they made it impossible by 
design.  They've literally wilfully and intentionally engineered their entire network for the all-or-nothing scenario.
