Ask HN: Why is HN still using CloudFlare?
I think HN of all places should show an example and stop using CF in order to protect its users from their TLS MITM and CloudBleed-like scenarios.
We all know that this kind of centralization is bad for security and privacy but still continue using CF because it's convenient. Please, do the right thing, stop using CF. The way they are dealing with Tor users should be enough reason to not use their services.
- simplehuman 10y agoI don't think anyone will move out of cloudflare because of the incident. Like most news these days, there is a lot of noise but very little action.
- yincrash 10y agoWhat would you propose as an alternative?
- jakobdabo 10y agoIt depends on the answer to why exactly HN is using CF. Is it for DDoS protection, or just as a general purpose CDN?
