> If you can’t tell I’m human then you’re doing it wrong. I'm gonna go out on a limb and say that if multiple multi-billion dollar companies struggle with it, then it's less of a solved problem than you're implying. > Especially if you run a VPN on your router. Very few people do this, and almost all of them are also using ad blockers. If using Cloudflare protects a site from thousands of bot attacks while inconviencing a few real users with esoteric setups, that tradeoff is well worth it for most site owners. I've set up Cloudflare on hundreds of websites and when you look at the amount of nasty stuff it blocks, it quickly becomes clear why it's needed. If you want to blame someone, blame the Russian and Chinese governments (among others) for doing little to nothing about their unfathomably massive botnets.
