I never do. Maybe you or something on your computer or network is the problem?

- capableweb 5y agoUsually it's because they live in a different country than what people consider the "Western World" or something like that. When I'm in Europe, I don't see that page very often, unless in Eastern Europe. But if I'm in Asia, Africa or Central/South America, then I encounter that page all the time.
- Godel_unicode 5y agoFwiw, this is an option that many people configure for themselves in cloudflare. Some security people love recommending using IP geo-blocking as a good tactic for hardening systems.
- raxxorrax 5y agoIf you configured your client to hide enough information, Cloudflare tends to believe you are a threat. VPN users probably have that problem a lot more.
- can16358p 5y agoYou don't have to hide any information. I don't hide any information and still get blocked because of the country I reside in.
- jtbayly 5y agoYeah, but even if you’re in an “acceptable” country you get blocked if you care about privacy. The point is that CF often blocks people.
- zelphirkalt 5y agoAnd so Cloudflare becomes an enemy of privacy?
- humpydumpy 5y agoexactly. I care about privacy, and I do see that page often. Sometimes it helps to send a non-empty useragent string, or to enable javascript. Most of the time I just close the tab.
- can16358p 5y agoNope. Just being in some country (in my case Turkey) is perfectly enought to be geoblocked.
