The tutorial uses the Full encryption option, which does encrypt the data between your origin server and Cloudflare. You might be thinking of their flexible SSL option?
[EDIT] I might add that for anyone not using GitHub Pages as per the tutorial, they'll need additional steps to get Full SSL working with Cloudflare. It's not effortless.
- RKearney 9y agoThe problem is CloudFlare offers zero way for an end user to identify if a site is setup with flexible SSL or not. Therefore I have no way of verifying the full path back to the origin. I brought this up and was told "This is something we are definitely considering." but heard nothing beyond that.
- blibble 9y agothey won't do it as it's one of their major selling points: one click ssl by offering the "flexible ssl" option at all it seems that they couldn't give a toss whether on not it actually protects anyone
