Why do people on /g/ accuse Cloudflare of being a "MITM"? Obviously an HTTP reverse proxy needs to be able to process HTTP requests to function. Also, if someone is paranoid, they can use the Web Crypto API.
>why do people accuse something of doing what it does
>>107846473Saying "MITM" implies they are a cyberattacker
>>107846507Saying "MITM" implies they are the man in the middle, which they are
>>107846515"man in the middle" has always referred to an unknown impersonator, not to reverse proxies
>>107846467because it is?
>>107846467
>>107846533well people on /g/ use it differently, i don't know what to tell you ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
>>107846467As long as your certs aren't hosted by Cloudflare, then you're probably fine.However, I wouldn't be surprised if Cloudflare had access to some of the private keys for CAs.
It's not a MITM attack, people are retards and don't understand how reverse proxies work.
>>107846653Other than the implied malice in everyday use of "MITM", how does the technological aspect itself differ from MITM?
american corporations are satanic and should be punished at every opportunity
>>107846743you don't even believe in God
>>107846689Cloudflare isn't impersonating the client
