Is it really that complicated? Someone else on your ISP is almost definitely sending abusive traffic and it gets your ISP greylisted. Instead of blaming cloudflare you could instead get your ISP to proactively block / ban abusers.
- cortesoft 5y agoDo you think the average user is going to 1) Know that this is what is happening and 2) Have their ISP listen to them?
- wmf 5y agoUsers don't need to be in the loop here. ISPs should monitor their reputation (e.g. by using their own service) and fix it without being nagged.
- cortesoft 5y agoShould, sure. But that doesn’t help their customers who often have no choice for their ISP.
- Nextgrid 5y agoHow do you monitor this in a privacy-respecting manner? Frankly, with HTTPS, how do you monitor this even at all? There's no way as an ISP to tell benign from malicious HTTPS traffic? Does Cloudflare provide something to say "Is my IP considered malicious?" and a way to ask/appeal about any bans?
- johncolanduoni 5y agoBy keeping track of what IP is assigned to a customer and responding to emails sent to the abuse contact on their WHOIS record.
- Nextgrid 5y agoDoes Cloudflare even send abuse reports? Or does their AI just blacklist IP ranges without any notification?
