This article misses the point entirely. Anyone running a load balancer in their production environment is "MITM" their SSL. The difference between CloudFare and Superfish is that A) as the site operator, I'm electing (opt-in) to use CloudFares service, and B) and configuring CloudFare to use SSL is something that is very apparent during the setup process. There's a huge green button.
In the case of Superfish, the software is opt-out. It comes pre-installed, and there's no giant green button that says "enable SSL through this service".
The two couldn't be more different.
