Was anyone aware of this? Do we know where this site was hosted? Does this have anything to do with the new regulations to silence the media over in Europe? Inquiring minds want to know.

the host was in Toronto Canada, ran by Cloudflare
searchvoat.co is hosted by: Cloudflare, Inc.
WHOIS information: Click here

AS name: CLOUDFLARENET
Reverse DNS of the IP:

copilot said the server was in Washington state and Cloudflare does operate a major data center in Toronto, which began handling traffic to improve performance across Canada. It’s possible that SearchVoat.co was using Cloudflare’s CDN or reverse proxy services, which would route traffic through Toronto even if the origin server was elsewhere.
Cloudflare is a content distribution network proxy - it can appear to be in many locations at once, even with the same IP address.
It caches static content from servers behind it and distributed it to CF's many datacenters to speed up page load times, and also take the hit of a DDoS attack so that it wouldn't hit the site's actual servers.
GAW is also behind Cloudflare proxies, it works well, and is a good practice to use it rather than just connecting a server to the internet in many cases.
They also offer DNS and some other services for free or pretty cheap at low scales.
same I found here: San Francisco

Cloudflare is controlled by deep state or wef or something high up there
I have had conservative clients black balled from cloudflare.
