alt Hacker NewsI had not heard of the "La Liga situation", but googled and what I learned was that La Liga is a Spanish football (soccer) team, and their players did a protest action about not wanting a match to be staged in Florida, and the team owners tried to say it was an illegal strike, but a court recently disagreed and said it was protected protest....
I still have no idea what any of this has to do with any clients moving from Cloudflare to Bunny.net, what am I missing?
