I think the issue is the lack of consent. Whether a service I use is protecting my website from scrapers or feeding everything to scrapers, some of us would prefer that it takes our informed consent before doing so.

- dannyw 3mo agoCloudflare is explicitly a service for dropping requests, whether it’s DDoS attacks, as a WAF, or AI crawlers. It offers a lot more too, but this isn’t Cloudflare overstepping imo. FWIW, I just set up a domain last week, and the web UI asked if I want to block AI crawlers or not. Perhaps OP set it up agentically, and the agent didn’t pass an optional param correctly, or ticked the box for him?
