please solve this if you want to know my opinion on this matter.
>>
>>107838368
i dislike the overall centralization of the web, which was designed to be decentralized.
>>
>>107838394
>centralization
Tell me how I know you're retarded without actually telling me you're retarded.
There is hundred of WAF services out there, hell you can even deploy your own infrastructure if you wanted. Cloudflare is used on like 5% of sites out there only.
>>
>>107838394
>centralization
The point of a WAF is to have distributed servers across the globe so you obtain the assets from the closest one to you, moron
>>
>>107838408
Wrong! You really need to be careful spreading misinformation these days when it's so painlessly easy to disprove you.

Cloudflare is used by 80.5% of websites whose reverse proxy service is known, which translates to 19.4% of all websites.
Approximately 32.8% of the top 10,000 most popular websites utilize Cloudflare services.
>>
>>107838429
>Copy pasting google AI
lmao, still 20% is very low
>>
>>107838408
lol you're a fucking cloudflare bot doing damage control, they dont pay you enough to shill here

a vast amount of the web is behind cf, and nearly all the web that people need to use on the daily are behind it
>>
>>107838420
>>107838408
can it be used for mitm attacks though?
>>
>>107838447
4x more than the bullshit you were trying to spew. You got fact checked "nigga." Cry about it.
>>
>>107838457
Oh another retard
Please tell me how a WAF service is meant to protect the original server IP or validating all the api calls that pass thru it without decrypting and re-encrypting the connection. I will wait.
>>
beyond fast dns lookup speed it doesnt really offer much for users, you should be self hosting your dns
>>
>>107838507
so let me get it straight..
right after obama and eu people said that they will create a new manhattan project to "solve" cryptography problem there is a new cool startup called cloudflare with unlimited resources that "protects" you and your site for free.

got it.
>>
>>107838368
Dont give a fuck. It is dns. There is nothing to like or dislike.
>>
>>107838408
>>107838420
>hundred of WAF services
>even has location proximity!
>yet, half of the internet becomes unavailable when cloudflare(tm) goes down
alright.
>>
>>107838534
>with unlimited resources that "protects" you and your site for free.
unless you do a racisms, then you won't be protected
>>
>>107838457
>>107838534
If someone is concerned about that, they can use the Web Crypto API
>>
>>107838534
There is hundred other WAF services and you just avoided the question.
I accept your concession.
>>
>>107838567
>There is hundred other WAF services
my question is: why are foreign ESL shills defending cloudflare?
>>
>>107838574
>shills
Oh wow the unemployed neckbeard want to know why companies use a service and can't answer a simple functionality question, second consession accepted, thanks anon.
>>
>>107838598
>the unemployed neckbeard want to know why
i mean i could always be employed as an internet shill instead of doing it for free. how well is that working for you?

the question remains:
why is this foreign ESL shill defending cloudflare like it's his mother? do you like that cloudflare stops the racisms in their tracks? elaborate, don't be guarded. you're so proud of your position. where are you from?

Cloudflare is NSA.
They intercept half of the HTTPS traffic and they killed Tor - all while offering stuff for free to unsuspecting morons.

>do you like that cloudflare stops the racisms in their tracks?
What are you talking about? Cloudflare is extremely hands-off.
