Whatever was really happening in that incident it seems clear that it was not a simple matter of having registered some domains with Cloudflare and then getting a shakedown for $100k+ because of that.

If anyone else chooses to read the post then I suggest skimming the comments (that are mostly hidden by default) as well.

Cmon, this is the guy that was running a shady online casino which was tanking Cloudflare’s IP reputation, completely different.
