This is a good idea for some people. The vast majority of us would benefit from the security of having termination on a host outside of our control and especially away from a public-facing webserver.
Besides, I believe at this point "accidental leak from an engineer" is about 100x more likely than sophisticated hackers.

- Kubuxu 10y agoI agree with this so much. I don't know how people can be ok with terminating their SSL in CloudFlare and then sometimes running the plain, old HTTP from the CF to their servers. Even if you run from CF to your server via HTTPS, I wouldn't trust CF. There is no such thing as free service in this world. They have profit in your data or in your users'.
