Cloudflare's CEO Matthew Prince emphasizes that X's return to service in Brazil was purely coincidental, stemming from a vendor switch rather than an intentional manipulation of the ban.
Prince elaborated that Cloudflare's recent deal for cloud computing services played a role in this transition, disrupting how Brazilian ISPs were blocking X's platform.
He characterized the situation as a "wild coincidence," whereby the infrastructure change inadvertently placed Cloudflare in the midst of geopolitical tensions surrounding Elon Musk.
Despite skepticism about the mere coincidence, Prince maintains that there was no collaboration with X to evade the Brazilian ban, reinforcing the unexpected nature of the timing.
