    Cloudflare is stellar. I just bought tickets to SeaWorld and my mobile phone was successfully blocked from being able to open the automatically emailed link with the ticket pdf in it. Top notch security.

      It amazing how every fucking service needs Cloudflare connection on top…

      I know there is a valid reason for this… Allegedly but it surely would make it easy for a threat actor to correlate your actions

        I don’t think there is a valid reason to this. I mean they offer several other services as well. But I think many, many people use it instead of other web application firewalls, because Cloudflare are good snake-oil salesmen and everyone else is using it too, so it must be valid. And there is a free tier, and nobody cares giving away their and their customer’s private data and introducing one big single point of failure to the internet…

          Thank you for additional context. I did hear about that fucking free tier… Its like that guy in prison… Shit ain’t free!
