- Your captcha currently appears to be blocking Tor users. After clicking 'Im not a robot' it always says 'Try again later. Your sending automated queries' ([JungleBoy03](https://twitter.com/JungleBoy03/status/978860372760449025))

- Ich bin mir sicher, dass du eine Antwort bekommst. Nur bin ich mir sicher, dass die sich nicht wieder wirklich darauf einlassen, das Ding zu deaktivieren. Wenn sie wenigstens TOR Verbindungen ohne Hindernisse durch lassen würden 🙄 Aber naja ... gz Cloudflare. Ihr habt erfolgreich das Internet zentralisiert. Was der Struktur des Internets zu Urteilen nie Sinn und Zweck war by @[kromonos](https://social.snopyta.org/@kromonos/104258729962672240)
- Du hast eine Domain bei INWX liegen? Du findest cloudflare scheiße? Dann schreib bitte eine Mail an den Support, dass die cloudflare für deren Webseite bitte wieder abschalten sollen. Ja, aktuell ist die ganze Seite samt Zertifikat von bzw. hinter Cloudflare versteckt. Je mehr Leute sich beschweren, desto besser stehen die Erfolgschancen. Bitte teilen! by @[nuron](https://social.tchncs.de/@nuron/104258767881075941)
- Wenn wir von heute auf morgen alle über TOR Routen würden, wäre Cloudflare auf einmal nicht mehr scheiß egal. by @[kromonos](https://social.snopyta.org/@kromonos/104213914131776937)
- The election system is broken in terms of privacy. Citizens are forced to decide: 1) give up the right to vote, or 2) share their physical address with the state, who will then publish it for anyone to access. On top of that, 8 states now force all voters to share the public info + their SSN or DL with CloudFlare Inc.I think Alaska is the only state sensible enough to give voters a way to keep their physical address private. by [aktivismoestasmialuo](https://activism.openworlds.info/@aktivismoEstasMiaLuo/104304629350973064)
- I do not federate with instances behind cloudflare.Und damit geht es: by [kromonos](https://social.snopyta.org/@kromonos/104298078058044337)
- My blog is just a FuckCloudFlare blog now, deal with it by [lunaterra](https://cyberia.social/@lunaterra/101825691714288137)
- grrr ... hat schon wieder aktiviert ... Jetzt hab ich aber echt kein Bock mehr nochmal den Support an zu schreiben und such mir einen neuen Registrar ... by [kromonos](https://social.snopyta.org/@kromonos/104258658258417328)
- I read that article w/ in mind (esp. ). It's implied: rebels are most likely someone w/nothing to lose. OTOH, some ppl fail to rebel for that very same reason. E.g. a non- user assumes nothing is lost by patronizing CloudFlare sites.What drives forward fights against an oppressive society is a rival vision – a vision of equality, liberty and justice, and a sense that these should be defended, whatever the consequences.Rival visions are in short supply. by [aktivismoestasmialuo](https://activism.openworlds.info/@aktivismoEstasMiaLuo/104252347476274862)
- es ese justamente el punto.¿Donde esta el negocio de ?Yo tengo la sospecha que es una agencia gubernamental, financiada por el gob.(No olvidemos que hace unos meses atras se descubrio que la mayor empresa de de comunicaciones suiza, que desde mediados de los 60s trabajaba con mas de 100 paises del cono sur, resulto ser una aencia de los servicios secretos de y )No me sorprenderia que tambien lo fuera. by [0j0](https://mastodon.social/@0j0/104251846298123390)
- Ich hab DIE Idee. Wir lassen künftig nur noch über surfen. Wetten, dass er dann bei genauso ausflippt wie bei ? by [kromonos](https://social.snopyta.org/@kromonos/104245463412211476)
- they've censored LGBT resources under sexual content with their DNS scheme, they harass tor users with captchas to access almost all their websites by default, which pins tracking information to you in an attempt to deanonymize you (Its s Google Captcha, what do you expect). They've consolidated a large part of the web and its traffic under their control and undermine the idea that encrypted web connections should be going directly to a site, untampered with.So if you're a large company with a stranglehold on internet traffic, the ability to track users, and view the unencrypted contents of their connections, what do you think is an obvious way to profit?Don't trust CloudFlare. You don't need another entity that you invest ISP-levels of blind faith in.The following blogposts outline the general technical issues with them and similar services outside their recent homophobic streak. With links to other blog posts which cover particular details in more depth: by [thufie](https://social.pixie.town/@thufie/104254775245050772)
- Cloudflare, swearing it is not a joke, have launched a censored DNS product that out the gate blocks LGBTQ support and aid sites as well as sex education resources. (They have unblocked some of these now in response to complaints, but many remain inaccessible via their filter) by [thufie](https://social.pixie.town/@thufie/103929455267842999)
- Ppl should already be boycotting gitlab. Gitlab.com is quite evil even before enters the picture: & . by [aktivismoestasmialuo](https://activism.openworlds.info/@aktivismoEstasMiaLuo/103851993446687912)
- I was trying to figure out where all my views are coming from and I discovered /r/selfhosters , which is one of those subreddits with an ironic name since all the users on it are actually sysadmins for large corporations. The comments were all a bunch of negative squealing about how impolite I was followed by a bunch of excuses. I'm glad some of these corporate web motherfuckers took it personally. by [lunaterra](https://cyberia.social/@lunaterra/101554142044753504)
- Don't Trust CloudFlare! I finally finished writing my first real blog post about why people should avoid CloudFlare (which should be spelled camel-case for accessibility purposes ). by [lunaterra](https://cyberia.social/@lunaterra/101548514349857054)
- I'm interested in having somebody help me with a Graphic depicting a number of Mastodon instances in a CloudFlare cloud communicating insecurely in a way that CloudFlare is snooping on. Maybe the cloud has a magnifying glass? idkAnyways, contact me if you want to help, this would be a part of my blog post I'm working on and I'd providr attribution of course. by [lunaterra](https://cyberia.social/@lunaterra/101402981464718532)
- I stopped reading Niebezpiecznik, most popular polish security website, exactly because they use CloudFlare. It's pain in the ass. And not due to security concerns but usability concerns. If I have to fill 2-5 captchas every time I visit a website I stop visiting it. by @[pk](https://freeradical.zone/@pk/104256564189826563)
- the irony of linking to gitlab, while criticizing the usage of cloudflare: gitlab also uses cloudflare. It's a mess... by @[syster](https://social.linux.pizza/@syster/104207835323296120)
- I was going to start contributing to that wiki, but then I noticed it's a CloudFlare site. I will not contribute to a CF asset. by @[aktivismoEstasMiaLuo](https://activism.openworlds.info/@aktivismoEstasMiaLuo/104149529821644159)
- Save the Internet, boycott Cloudflare by @[Ajz](https://mastodon.nl/@Ajz/103712485183183547)
- I used the shocking fact that I noticed that mastodon.social is using bad-cookie Cloudflare, to once again remind people that mastodon.social is overloaded. by @[Ajz](https://mastodon.nl/@Ajz/103709379040402180)
- Cloudflare silently deleted my DNS records by @[hackeroo](https://botsin.space/@hackeroo/103715714895415788)
- Note as well that 8 states force registration through a CloudFlare site. The voters of those states probably have no idea they're giving their SSN, DL, & home address to CloudFlare Inc. by @[resist1984](https://social.privacytools.io/@resist1984/103761564660249556)
- NPM’s outage and Cloudflare’s communication... what a mess by @[zerok](https://chaos.social/@zerok/103681659450407389)
- It is quite apparent that the internet needs to move away from cloudflare
- I ran an tor exitnode for a few hours (mostly for testing combined with a miss in config) and now does cloudflare prompt me with a captcha every, single, minute. Do youself and your user a favour, and move away from cloudflare by @[selea](https://social.linux.pizza/@selea/103692664037914594)
- It seems to me tusky still try to connect to cloudflare despite using http proxy. by @[Br0m3x](https://social.weho.st/@Br0m3x/103674328334042541)
- Sehe gerade, ein Moodle, in das ich mich einlogge, nutzt Cloudflare. Wie ist das denn aus Datenschutzsicht zu bewerten?
- Kennt sich da jemand aus? In der Datenschutzerklärung des Moodles findet sich da nichts drüber. by @[D22](https://social.tchncs.de/@D22/103634742838191448)
- You oppose Google & Amazon at least in part due to their attacks on privacy. Yet, you're in CloudFlare's privacy-abusing walledgarden yourself. You should ditch mastodon.social and find a node that respects your values. by @[aktivismoEstasMiaLuo](https://activism.openworlds.info/@aktivismoEstasMiaLuo/103591534339447704)
- I'm tired of people going on about Cloudflare. It's not a normal tired either. It's a please get the fuck out of my face if you're going to say one more word because I am just done. A friend of mine said I was a shit service provider because I would rather stop running everything than put my applications behind a MITM and compromise user privacy. by @[amolith](https://masto.nixnet.xyz/@amolith/103650166871589343)
- Würde ich gerne, aber change.org lässt mich nicht auf die Webseite, weil ich mich momentan im Netz der Leaseweb Deutschland GmbH befinde (screenshot: ASN 28753). change.org sollte dringend ihren Server konfigurieren oder besser noch den Hoster Clownflare wechseln. by @[Wolfram](https://norden.social/@Wolfram/103608344157032468)
- Today first I successfully did a search on opensubtitles.org with Firefox and noticed that this site uses CloudFlare. Then later on I tried to do a search on opensubtitles.org with the Tor browser. I got the Google ReCaptcha, and after solving that for more than 10 to 15 times, where it seemed to give me access a few times, I was still not able to perform a search at all (meh) :_catsad: When will people realize that the free of charge for 1 website DDOS protection by CloudFlare is not at all a cool and free option to choose for. It is more like selling your soul and poisoning the Internet. Also : A few months ago I had to use the CloudFlare web admin interface for a friend. I added a subdomain for an admin login page for the website of my friend. Then I continued working on the site and suddenly noticed in the logs that the brand new subdomain was visited by several different ones, including a tor node. At first I got confused by it, and I found it very unpleasant, but in the end my conclusion is that CloudFlare is just dodgy. I hope that affordable CDN and DDOS protection alternatives will grow and vanish CloudFlare in the end. by @[Ajz](https://mastodon.host/@Ajz)
- If you're at a small scale, why would you pretend you need the services that CloudFlare provides in the first place? I understand that people watching MSM and have little knowledge of IT will think that everyone in the world is constantly being DDoSed every time they make a post on their blog, but that's just not the case. by @[fglt](https://soc.fglt.nl/objects/0e1fe9a1-1099-4091-899b-69130f309a6e)
- I understand the marketing team has a lot of other functionalities that you can list in order to make it look less bad, but you're still doing all your users a massive disservice by employing CloudFlare inbetween them and your service. No matter how many cool features you think you're getting for gratis, you're still handing all your customer data to them, essentially through having them become the middle man of the man in the middle scheme. Paying for that service is even more ridiculous from any sane perspective. by @[fglt](https://soc.fglt.nl/objects/e3a57b9a-a80d-4d2b-a44f-de8b166dba00)
- If you had ever trusted CloudFlare to work in the interests of it's customers, you were a fool to begin with. by @[fglt](https://soc.fglt.nl/objects/c91371f7-2a56-4c5f-b5b1-1e1942a6e953)
- Cloudflare and Google captcha are the worst enemies of tor. by @[lexa](https://mstdn.io/@lexa/103356277680824722)
- BTW, it doesn't matter who your CA is, the tunnel between outsiders & CF's site always terminates at CF. So, for example, if you were a mastodon.social user, CF would see your username & unhashed pw full stop. by @[resist1984](https://social.privacytools.io/@resist1984/103359038780017782)
- CloudFlare blocks from the reader's side, not the author. If Alice blogs on a CF site then Bob is blocked from reading it if CF objects to Bob's IP address-browser pair. And that's not theoretical -- it's certain. CF dictates who can reach who. CF also pushes surveillanceCapitalism via a forced Google-served CAPTCHA (depending on IP-browser pair). Using a CF service gives them power. Twentyfivebux unwittingly supports centralization & empowers CF by using mastodon.social. by @[resist1984](https://social.privacytools.io/@resist1984/103358978513641848)
- Sure there are many instances. Some are respecting of freedom & privacy, and some are not. CloudFlare is an abuser of privacy & netneutrality. You've specifically endorsed a CF node (mastodon.social). As a privacy foundation, you should know better and you should set a better example. by @[resist1984](https://social.privacytools.io/@resist1984/103359630910309671)
- CloudFlare sites like mastodon.social are profoundly stupid choices to endorse. Even if you neglect the Tor hostility & VPN weakness, CF still sees all traffic. Also, using CF feeds a privacy abuser financially, which works against your alleged cause. by @[resist1984](https://social.privacytools.io/@resist1984/103359717636003316)
- I'm more concerned with Clouflare's dominance (~75% of high-traffic websites on internet) regarding caching HTTPS in exchange for website owners private keys (in effect silently compromising all visitors to said sites as well). After digging into Cloudbleed and the technical solution at Cloudflare making this security bug possible, along with their transparency (www.cloudflare.com/transparency/), it became apparent that this is the biggest orchestrated HTTPS weakness out there serving US government. by @[modrobert](https://qoto.org/@modrobert/103349511813674970)
- They removed Cloudflare has never terminated a customer due to political pressure by @[amolith](https://masto.nixnet.xyz/@amolith/103353026740986457)
- Wenn futurzone.at jetzt auch noch damit aufhört, ihren kompletten Traffic durch Cloudflare zu jagen, kann man sie bei solchen Artikeln auch ernst nehmen! by @[kromonos](https://metalhead.club/@kromonos/103347438033060779)
- In der Tat. Cloudflare scheint wohl Verbindungen zur NSA zu haben? by @[display](https://f.haeder.net/display/adbba6c6-945d-fe77-7156-80f533821135)
- You should switch to a decentralized node before building followers by @[resist1984](https://social.privacytools.io/@resist1984/103342936171766997)
- I am depressed. I'm seeing so many fantastic open source projects using subpar services like Cloudflare and Digital Ocean bEcAuSe MaRkEtInG and they don't realise what kind of ecosystem they're buying into. by @[amolith](https://masto.nixnet.xyz/@amolith/103343274100985996)
- On a more serious note, I know a lot of people believe using Cloudflare automagically makes their site more secure because of the green lock indicating that fact. I can understand it more for people using crappy webhosts that you can't get certs from Let's Encrypt with. For people who run their own servers, there is no excuse for putting CF in the middle and giving them access to all their users' traffic. It's just stupid. by @[amolith](https://masto.nixnet.xyz/@amolith/103315936594282075)
- This repo outlines all the reasons I would give in greater detail than I have time to go into. I've contributed a bit but the maintainers do a fantastic of keeping it very up-to-date with the current situation by @[amolith](https://masto.nixnet.xyz/@amolith/103315947408760507)
- Fantastic. I'm connected to a friend's VPN (all of two users) while downloading some movies and I went to view someone's profile but the instance seems to be behind Cloudflare cloudflare_red They've been getting more and more aggressive lately by @[amolith](https://masto.nixnet.xyz/@amolith/103315876773459246)
- Why the hell do people use Cloudflare on their Mastodon instances anyway...? It makes even less sense to me than other usecases. by @[polarisfm](https://www.librepunk.club/@polarisfm/103315896439633426)
- just solve the captcha, it works, we promise! cloudflare are liars and censors by @[opal](https://anime.website/objects/cc7f93e8-9114-4a11-97e8-a92f75c280fe)
- I swear it seems like half the sites on the web are having a Cloudflare related outage today. Who woulda thought trying to route half the web through a single point of failure wouldn't ever be a problem? by @[BalooUriza](https://meow.social/@BalooUriza/103330872309479681)
- Congress has put publically funded literature under CreativeCommons licensing (when CC's license text sends ppl to CloudFlare's walledgarden). Then he reports this using sparcopen.org, a CloudFlare site. It should have been publicDomain. Public funding = public domain. This is just layers of hypocrisy. by @[batalanto](https://todon.nl/@batalanto/103326880978571285)
- Having CloudFlare MITM your website is like shutting the door in my face. No, I will not Select all images with street signs. But I will blacklist your site in my browser. by @[notice](https://shitposter.club/notice/949325)
- Point is: no, you don't need CloudFlare. by @[rysiek](https://mastodon.social/@rysiek/103240081915169502)
- cloudflare is having problems again, hm? by @[musicmatze](https://mastodon.technology/@musicmatze/103239327000559082)
- Anyone marginally concerned about privacy needs to take a massive step back at this point. Bitchute will not load videos for Tor Privacy Browser users. by @[dsfgs](https://activism.openworlds.info/@dsfgs/103232653381567023)
- Sorry, i'll never sign a change.org petition - it's a privacy-abusing CloudFlare site. Use openpetition.org for petitions important enough for everyone to access. by @[resist1984](https://social.privacytools.io/@resist1984/103204933856595091)
- Tails is still useful but devs are not trustworthy. by @[bojkotiMalbona](https://infosec.exchange/@bojkotiMalbona/103188285582213699)
- Can you trust CloudFlare with your personal data? by @[Edent](https://mastodon.social/@Edent/103175943251084170)
- wenn sich der Tagesspiegel nicht hinter cloudflare verstecken würde, würde ich ihn wahrscheinlich auch lesen by @[kromonos](https://metalhead.club/@kromonos/103136278965173255)
- To MITM an entire domain with CF you give Cloudflare authority over the entire domain’s DNS resolution. This is the best indicator of a full domain MITMing. by @[Trysdyn Black](https://marf.space/objects/6a07884a-cfe8-4eeb-9486-63ffe791259f)
- The corp., project + devs lost my trust once they pushed EME, Pocket, Studies, censorship and Cloudflare crap. by @[NullWhereMan](https://social.bobcall.me/@NullWhereMan/103115226792755635)
- It's a bit of a hypocrisy for privacytoolsIO to subject their donors to a Cloudflare site. No warning is given to tell their pro-privacy supporters that their name, address, and sensitive financial data will be shared with a privacy abuser. by @[batalanto](https://todon.nl/@batalanto/103097101716393570)
- interessant, eine Website a la github, die die Umtriebe von cloudflare dokumentiert by @[alm10965](https://social.bau-ha.us/@alm10965/102670940812325433)
- plz avoid imgur.com - It's CloudFlare'd. by @[aktivismoEstasMiaLuo](https://activism.openworlds.info/@aktivismoEstasMiaLuo/103131170879379868)
- The bad side-effect is that *many* are registering on mastodon.social, which is centralized on Cloudflare & ultimately detrimental. by @[batalanto](https://todon.nl/@batalanto/103127670786580635)
- I suggest leaving mastodon.social & choosing a different Mastodon node. Mastodon is about decentralization, and the mastodon.social node is centralized on CloudFlare by @[aktivismoEstasMiaLuo](https://activism.openworlds.info/@aktivismoEstasMiaLuo/103127507035816683)
- it's despicable that some mastodon & gnusocial nodes appear on CF. Those admins either don't grasp the netneutrality purpose of federating or they fail to realize that CF is entirely counter to net-neutrality. by @[resist1984](https://social.privacytools.io/@resist1984/102598306130420507)

- OK cloudflare hat mich blacklisted. Hmm, von cloudflare habe ich schon so manch schlechtes gehört ! Irgendwie ahnte ich doch so etwas, daß ich XXX.com nicht mehr nutzen kann. by @[alm10965](https://social.bau-ha.us/@alm10965/102670832938054598)
- GitLab sits behind Cloudflare and is hosted by Google – while Codeberg runs on Codeberg hardware and has no MITM. Much valued, especially for privacy reasons. Want more reasons against Cloudflare? by @[IzzyOnDroid](https://mastodon.technology/@IzzyOnDroid/102662955566633818)
- Cloudflare is a great big man in the middle ifyouknowwhatimean by @[shitposter](https://shitposter.club/notice/35788)
- OH GOD THAT'S CLOUDFLARE by @[shitposter](https://shitposter.club/notice/1026961)
- Security: every site that uses it, Cloudflare is a proxy that intercepts all the traffic. It can therefore correlate individual user traffic across every site that uses/embeds cloudflare site/resources. Single point of security failure, from a global surveillance point of view. Usability: If you're a Tor user, it makes a huge part of the Internet unbearable because it constantly injects captchas to view sites every couple minutes, to block abuse. by @[shitposter](https://shitposter.club/notice/389221)
- Ha, and the instance which you use, serves images through Cloudflare, so I can't see your profile picture. by @[rmw](https://welovela.in/rmw)
- Now, whenever that pops up, I just close the tab – and ask someone else to update. I've got no time to play memory puzzles. Got more important stuff to do. by @[IzzyOnDroid](https://mastodon.technology/@IzzyOnDroid/102667841048225494)
- Good starting point: no fears of anything being blocked (so doesn't hurt to try), while great for showing off. Like with that tooth paste ad: Ugh, it's all red! Might get some people start thinking. Hopefully. by @[IzzyOnDroid](https://mastodon.technology/@IzzyOnDroid/102667729196429726)
- Cloudflare is a censorship company; it's all about money and profits, not freespeech by @[Dr. Roy](https://pleroma.site/objects/7b613725-4178-4e6b-881b-3cb080de0ecc)
- Only pedophiles use Cloudflare by @[yuni](https://patch.cx/objects/3de4abbb-6ff0-4014-b4df-e6e6cc7a407e)
- Please do reconsider when possible, I find Cloudflare to be dangrous. by @[utf8equalsX](https://fosstodon.org/@utf8equalsX/102582059701778332)
- destroy cloudflare by @[ReplyGal](https://pleroma.soykaf.com/notice/9m549hhM8c2YwYhxfU)
- The timeouts it's been causing, apparently, seem to be worse than the DoS protection and such it's supposed to provide. by @[KatieBrink](https://pleroma.soykaf.com/notice/9m557HJJNNiWThrv2u)
- I don't get why none of these people understand how Cloudflare works and doesn't work. by @[zoe](https://sleeping.town/@zoe)
- PSA: mastohost.com, where for some reason – and I don't really know how this works – most images that are posted here on mastodon are hosted, is cloudflared. That's very bad. by @[utf8equalsX](https://fosstodon.org/@utf8equalsX/102580647437254254)
- i do care about cloudflare not taking over the fediverse. im also weird about the masto.host instances (which incidentally use cf for media content) by @[unknown](https://anime.website/objects/68c10712-6d65-43a0-aeb8-502dab87c730)
- Also mit nginx eine eigene Firewall bauen, anstelle, wie es andere machen, Cloudflare zu nutzen. by @[kromonos](https://metalhead.club/@kromonos/102592478151563288)
- How to shut down the bullshitweb? Switch off Cloudflare & AWS, approx. 80% done. There's a Firefox (and Chrome) addon available at codeberg helping you decide what links not to click, as Cloudflare does a MITM by @[IzzyOnDroid](https://mastodon.technology/@IzzyOnDroid/102583975445779208)
- DDoS protection is good – but the price it comes at… They're said to play MITM in breaking up your encryption. And as I indicated: whenever they have an outage (and they had some), about 1/3 of the internet is unreachable… by @[IzzyOnDroid](https://mastodon.technology/@IzzyOnDroid/102585623297173423)
- The PINE64 website is also cloudflared. This means that cloudflare terminates the secure connection, decrypts the traffic, and encrypts it again. That is terrible. by @[utf8equalsX](https://fosstodon.org/@utf8equalsX/102581004076074151)
- Everyone should boycott censorship-loving @Cloudflare and any groups associated with it that they are able. (Dailymotion) Cloudflare 8chan Censorship by @[Styx666Official](https://mstdn.foxfam.club/@Styx666Official/102570516495655146)
- I found that over half the sites I tried to visit would not load at all unless I added exceptions, and some loaded but with broken elements. It seems to me it's not healthy for the internet to have a single company controlling this much. They may be benevolent now, but what about the future? by @[kezzbracey](https://mastodon.gamedev.place/@kezzbracey/102574455814372037)
- Well done, Cloudflare. And thank you. Thank you for proving me right. You're a surveillance and censorship company. You start with nazis and you move on closer from that edge by @[Dr. Roy](https://pleroma.site/objects/0f476d6e-aeef-4043-89c1-5db998b69497)
- And now bigTech cloudflare is deciding they need to be the gatekeeper of more speech. Because a crazy happened to post on one of their hosted sites??? by @[poncho524](https://mastodon.host/@poncho524/102567778634669022)
- Ich betreibe gleich seit fast 14 Jahren eigene Server und hab noch keinen Grund dafür finden können, sie komplett hinter einen Proxy von Cloudflare zu stellen. Ganz ehrlich... Wer Cloudflare wegen Sicherheit nimmt, der sollte aufgrund mangelnder Kenntnisse über Serversicherheit seinen Server besser kündigen und sich einfachen Webspace zu legen! by @[kromonos](https://metalhead.club/@kromonos/102562981524139639)
- Services like CloudFlare are really nice with PatriotAct and NSA. USHackers whatawonderfulworld. CloudFlare create SSL certificates for sites they cache. So have the wholme traffic unciphered locally, and send it to the remote server to be cached. So, they have clear and unciphered access to the whole content : usernames passwords web content... by @[popolon](https://mastodon.social/@popolon/102546838067285665)

- the internet is a huge place even once you disable javascript and many websites stop working, and you use tor so the greatcloudwall auto-blocks you. by @[jeffcliff](https://niu.moe/@jeffcliff/101894104472506869)
- Ich surf inzwischen fast ausschließlich über TOR. Außer bei Betreibern, denen ic traue. Deswegen hab ich so oft ärger mit CloudFlare. Nur wenige machen es z.B. wie nipos und deaktivieren den TOR Schutz. by @[kromonos](https://metalhead.club/@kromonos/102501955975549073)
- na klasse. Noch so eine deutsche Firma, die glaubt, der Datenschutz sei gewährleistet, wenn man den kompletten Traffic durch einen proxy in den USA leitet. Also das Linux Magazin, nicht tuxedocomputers
- Man könnte echt meinen, die deutschen könnten ohne Cloudflare nicht mehr leben by @[kromonos](https://metalhead.club/@kromonos/102501662983987631)

- kann mir sicher beantworten, in wie weit Cloudflare mit dem deutschen Datenschutz vereinbar ist, wenn man eine Homepage hinter deren Proxy Server versteckt, deren Standorte in den USA liegen? Und wie muss Cloudflare in dem Fall in der Datenschutzerklärung angegeben sein? by @[kromonos](https://metalhead.club/@kromonos/102497051015883486)
- Wir haben also eine „ethical hacker“ Zertifizierung von der NSA beworben und CloudFlare auf einer Seite. Was sagt uns das also über CloudFlare aus? Für mich persönlich sieht das so aus, als würde CloudFlare die Daten direkt zur NSA weiter leiten by @[kromonos](https://metalhead.club/@kromonos/102462408957007477)
- Das Linux Magazin nennt die Nutzung der CloudFlare Reverse-Proxy Server als CDN ... Wenn das CDN ist, was ist dann das Ausliefern einzelner Dateien über einen extra Server?
- CloudFlare kann echt bald von jedem ein Bewegungsprofil erstellen, dagegen sind die Fahrzeuge von Google Maps ein scheiß by @[kromonos](https://metalhead.club/@kromonos/102475706977537396)
- Lustig, wie selbst INWX in ihren Datenschutzerklärungen in keinster Weise CloudFlare erwähnt. by @[kromonos](https://metalhead.club/@kromonos/102474883800543138)
- It's because cloudflare actively spies on traffic going through it, so any service connected to it is compromised by default. Even if the service itself is well-meaning and wants to respect privacy, just having cloudflare there ruins all of it. by @[OTheB](https://mastodon.technology/@OTheB/102457243116505761)
- Cloudflare had a unchecked regex expression they rolled out to live service without testing and it broke half the Internet. by @[Bluedepth](https://mastodon.technology/@Bluedepth/102457244936687401)
- Wenn ich mir die Möglichkeiten ansehe, die ich mit nginx habe, Log Dateien zu schreiben, läuft mir echt ein eiskalter Schauer über den Rücken,weil ich mir ausmalen kann,welchen Preis Besucher von Webseiten hinter Cloudflare Proxy Servern bezahlen. Wenn ich das ganze dann hoch rechne...Die könnten ein komplettes bewegungsprofil eines jeden erstellen. Und Google wird durch das Captcha direkt mit gefüttert.
- Ich als Anbieter könnte echt nicht mit dem Gewissen leben,meine Besucher so zu verkaufen by @[kromonos](https://metalhead.club/@kromonos/102458133671163498)
- Mit Serverstandort Deutschland zu werben, nutzt einen scheißdreck, wenn man den Server hinter den USA Proxys von CloudFlare versteckt. by @[kromonos](https://metalhead.club/@kromonos/102457750251926436)
- Really disappointed and a little disgusted by the Matrix team. Putting Cloudflare spyware on their main instance, forcing every user to either go through the malicious wall or to use a homeserver that doesn't federate with matrix.org thus cutting itself off from just about everything. Will be giving XMPP a go today. Wonder if that community has even the tiniest bit of respect for users. by @[OTheB](https://mastodon.technology/@OTheB/102456355379841384)
- Even the main instance uses Cloudflare. New users will probably just use the main instance for convenience. by @[RMW](https://linuxrocks.online/@RMW)
- I use to think it was cool that you can pay a little bit and have your own instance but it sucks that they put every instance behind Cloudflare. by @[amolith](https://masto.nixnet.xyz/@amolith/101918685210269597)
- Don't laugh when cloudflare says “the network is the computer.” They mean surveillance and they mean the surveillance goes all the way to the endpoints. Boycott them and their nefarious agenda. by @[roy](https://pleroma.site/objects/1ddf444d-0f2c-4d0d-bc11-e06f28efd5bc)
- I think I've found an alternative to Cloudflare Liberapay. I'm going to set Fosspay up this evening and start replacing Liberapay links on my website by @[amolith](https://masto.nixnet.xyz/@amolith/102436150784521976)

- All I want is a privacy respecting messaging platform that does group conversations and voice chat, does that *really* have to be a big ask? Been really put off Matrix with the Cloudflare bullshit and their attitude towards it. There are whole papers on the issues with it. When will this fucking nightmare end? I need suggestions. What things do other people use for this stuff? by @[OTheB](https://mastodon.technology/@OTheB/102456866393573493)
- Hi pixelfed! You just added a mandatory Cloudflare ajax service to pixelfed.social? The page is empty now... by @[antonlopez](https://mastodon.social/@antonlopez/102451687366539901)
- Ich nutz hauptsächlich Tor. Zwar heuchelt Cloudflare Tor-Freundlich zu sein, z.B. mit eigener Onion Adresse. Aber standardmäßig blocken die Tor Verbindungen, sofern man sie nicht freigibt.
- Zudem empfinde ich es nicht gerade als Datenschutzfreundlich, die Cloudflare Proxy Server zu nutzen. Vor allem, da Cloudflare dem Patriot Act untersteht. by @[kromonos](https://metalhead.club/@kromonos/102440347862158580)
- außerdem empfinde ich persönlich es als Wohltuend, wenn die CloudFlare Fanboys mal genauso auf ein Forbidden stoßen, wie TOR User all zu gern bei CloudFlare by @[kromonos](https://metalhead.club/@kromonos/102447153687932571)
- I think that I will stop using it, until they remove it from Cloudflare. I don't see it as something that is made for privacy if it decides to use Cloudflare for their main instance. by @[Robin](https://welovela.in/objects/456f3bba-ee24-48c5-92a3-7f80349dfbc3)
- angesprochen sollten auch nur jene werden, die keine Ahnung haben, aber dann so tun, als hätten sie sie. IT Blogger, die Anleitungen dazu bringen, wie man die Tor Exit Knoten Liste herunter lädt um die IP Adressen dann zu blockieren. Weil CloudFlare ja gesagt hat.
- Und jene, die keine Ahnung haben ... denen ist die Meinung der wirklichen Experten scheiß egal. Die lauschen lieber auf jene, die mit ihrem gefährlichen Halbwissen das Internet verpesten. by @[kromonos](https://metalhead.club/@kromonos/102445550843368442)
- Hyperbola members who don't care about Cloudflare, which disrepect the privacy over violation of rule 3 of the social contract by @[HarvettFox96](https://hostux.social/@HarvettFox96/102414243375270600)
- Remember how the liars at cloudflare pretended that had come under attack (causing major downtime), only later to admit that they broke their own service because they're technically incompetent. Avoid them. by @[schestowitz](https://pleroma.site/objects/a5533839-4678-4c06-975f-5ceceeaa793d)

- It's been estimated that today's Cloudflare outage is effecting about 10% of all websites world-wide. If a lot of your online world is down right now, your word and research topic for the day is decentralization by @[raye](https://sunbeam.city/@raye/102372447641525998)

- Вчера упал CloudFlare, из-за чего нарушилась работа крупнейших сервисов Интернета. Разработчики уже выпустили пост-мортем, из которого следует, что причиной падения стало – внимание – регулярное выражение, вызвавшее 100% нагрузку на CPU и, вследствие чего, множество 502-х ошибок в ответ на запросы. by @[Groosha](https://mastodon.social/@Groosha/102376274244244420)

- Natürlich bezahlst du nichts, dafür aber deine Besucher, die all ihre Daten und Metadaten einem in den USA durch den PatriotAct verpflichteten Dienst in den Rachen werfen. Noch dazu ein Dienst, der auf den meisten Seiten Tor blockiert. Fehler hin oder her ... Wer Datenschutz ernst nimmt, verzichtet auf Cloudflare und ähnliche Dienste.
