Cloudflare is one of the biggest threats to internet decentralization out there. I actively avoid sites that use CF for their TLS, if possible.
Avoid these predators.
- marginalia_nu 3y agoWhat if you're struggling with bots? In excess of 99% of my traffic is from a botnet. CF sucks but I vouldn't offer a service without them.
- Ms-J 3y agoThere are alternative techniques and services, such as DDoS-Guard.

- Ms-J 3y agoA question I could ask is why does the country matter if the product works and does what it's supposed to do?
- Borg3 3y agoIn ideal world it would not matter, but business and politics are intermixed more or less pretty much everywhere. Unfortunatelly, countries like Russia or China have much more politics influence. Hence, I try to avoid them.
- Ms-J 3y agoI would agree that business and politics can be intermixed. I would follow up by saying it also depends on the type of business you are running and to whom you're catering to. If you're running a medium sized business and used say DDoS-guard, would anyone notice, care, or even know who that company is? I'd think it would be even less noticed than say CF, as CF stops connections to your site and display that whole verify process.

- Ms-J 3y agoI don't believe it's free.
