Thank you for your response. I suppose I'm coming to grips with the security (and maybe more about privacy) implications of Cloudflare's immense popularity. The fact that both Cloudflare and GitLab are so up front, open and transparent about the compromises and advantages involved does ease my worry somewhat. That's a good point about the upside for GitLab users, that a potentail breach at CF would be limited to that layer, and not GitLab itself. All in all, the article (and your explanation) has convinced me that this is a net positive. --- EDIT: To be honest, the point about Cloudflare being able to inspect HTTPS traffic still doesn't sit well with me. I suppose I'll need to study deeper how this works, before I'm persuaded.
