Way too much of the internet is on cloudflare. They are and will continue to be the arbiters of speech on the internet. God forbid I browse the web with a vpn!

- midasuni 3y agoYet they are the golden boy on HN. Nobody should have that much power.
- asylteltine 3y agoSometimes I even get into infinite captcha loops without a vpn, even just on my phone. I LITERALLY cannot browse certain sites like wayfair because of cloudflare. I have done nothing wrong.
- midasuni 3y agoThey are doing it for your security. To be fair I’m never sure who is imposing the captcha s about things that are alien to my society (traffic lights hanging above lanes, yellow taxis, crossings without flashing amber lights), either cloudflare or google, but I’m certain it’s to continue the adtech economy.
