Why do so many people on /g/ dislike Cloudflare?
No other free alternative
Unemployed mid-wits that regurgitate youtuber retarded opinions, that's why.
>>107838368please solve this if you want to know my opinion on this matter.
>>107838368i dislike the overall centralization of the web, which was designed to be decentralized.
>>107838394>centralizationTell 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>centralizationThe point of a WAF is to have distributed servers across the globe so you obtain the assets from the closest one to you, moron
>>107838408Wrong! 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
>>107838408lol you're a fucking cloudflare bot doing damage control, they dont pay you enough to shill herea 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>>107838408can it be used for mitm attacks though?
>>1078384474x more than the bullshit you were trying to spew. You got fact checked "nigga." Cry about it.
>>107838457Oh another retardPlease 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
>>107838507so 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.
>>107838368Dont 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 downalright.
>>107838534>with unlimited resources that "protects" you and your site for free.unless you do a racisms, then you won't be protected
>>107838457>>107838534If someone is concerned about that, they can use the Web Crypto API
>>107838534There is hundred other WAF services and you just avoided the question. I accept your concession.
>>107838567>There is hundred other WAF servicesmy question is: why are foreign ESL shills defending cloudflare?
>>107838574>shillsOh 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 whyi 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?
>>107838368Cloudflare is NSA.They intercept half of the HTTPS traffic and they killed Tor - all while offering stuff for free to unsuspecting morons.
>>107838609>do you like that cloudflare stops the racisms in their tracks?What are you talking about? Cloudflare is extremely hands-off.
>>107838751see >>107838559
because using 15 schizophrenic "privacy" extensions breaks cloudflare
>>107838368>goyflare>use our MITM spyware to get DDOSed I mean get DDOS protectionhttps://developers.cloudflare.com/cloudflare-one/traffic-policies/http-policies/tls-decryption/
>>107839245see>>107838559
>>107838368Jersh stans
>>107838368I fucking love Cloudflare. When the LLM scraper bots came for my business, they solved a problem for us FOR FUCKING FREE that would have otherwise meant going out of business (and 80 people losing their jobs).A+ would recommend.
>>107838368literal botnet>>107838385нeт>>107839361>>107839323sad cringe
>>107838368>>107838408I immediately knew from reading the OP you were going to pull out this kind of tard rhetoric"Just use another service if you don't like it, you don't have to use cloudflare :)))"Those of us complaining about cloudflare aren't running internet services, we're mad because cloudflare is widespread on the websites we are using and visiting ourselves.
>>107838542>half of the internetThose are mostly meme services that you should have alternatives to anyway >but muh local government / municipal web services! Should have done your research before you voted
>>107839406>I immediately knew from reading the OP you were going to pull out this kind of tard rhetoricThose aren't the same people>we're mad because cloudflare is widespread on the websites we are using and visiting ourselvesWhy?
>>107838368>MITM half of the internet>requires you to run proprietary JavaScript to identify you>blocks vpns>single point of failureWhat is not to like?
