THIS is not cloudflarebut it is checking the browser in the same way
>>541894164o no theyre gonna know what OS and browser i use o nooooooooo im gonna go burn down a flock and record it with my jewish tracking device smartphone!!!!
Never understood what cloudfare is used for, probably some mossad spying tool
>>541894164ok
>>541894214ddos mitigation is a big part of what they do
>>541894213no, the thread is about:>why the fuck 4chan is on cloudflare when its not even mandatory
>>541894258okay you want 4chan to go down every other week like it used to a decade ago?
>>541894273ok
>>541894164>>>/g/ pls
>>541894273I havent seen fastly causing a downtime (firefox servers use it) So no idea what you are talking about
>>541894214maybe.but i primarily use it for two things on my site:>making sure visitors cant find the IP address of the VPS my site actually exists on. instead cloudflare acts as a proxy.>automatic CSAM image scanning to make sure nobody uploads CP
if im not mistaken, if not for cloudflare and services like it, any user could get the IP address of the physical machine an app/site is hosted on and attack it.
>>541894273A decade ago was 2016 and 4chan was pretty stable then ;)You're talking about 20-22 years ago at the start of 2000s. That's when 4chan died and came back over 9000 times.But this was primarily due to the cost of hosting the site. Maybe there were some DDoS attacks too, but none that I can recall.>>541894374He's talking about something you weren't probably alive for yet; see above.
>>541894487>You're talking about 20-22 years ago at the start of 2000soh fuck youre right....
