Re: Cloudflare plans, their paid plans also see the traffic; at most you can get a dedicated cert, or even hide the cert from them, but the traffic is always visible, since their CDN system pretty much relies on that.
- r1ch 8y agoI think the parent comment is referring to the "Flexible SSL" option where Cloudflare does HTTPS on the frontend but HTTP over the internet to the origin. Customers like it since they get the "green lock" in one click and no one can tell it's actually insecure. You could speculate Cloudflare are only analyzing this outbound unencrypted traffic, but they are of course seeing everything as you rightly pointed out.
- icebraining 8y agoOkay, but you don't need to pay to get Full SSL.
