mainx0n00001 “The Great Cloudwall” is Cloudflare Inc., the U.S. company.
mainx0n00002 It is providing CDN(content delivery network) services, DDoS mitigation, Internet security, and distributed DNS(domain name server) services.
mainx0n00003 Cloudflare is the world’s largest MITM proxy(reverse proxy).
mainx0n00004 Cloudflare owns more than 80% of CDN market share and the number of cloudflare users are growing each day.
mainx0n00005 They have expanded their network to more than 100 countries.
mainx0n00006 Cloudflare serves more web traffic than Twitter, Amazon, Apple, Instagram, Bing & Wikipedia combined.
mainx0n00007 Cloudflare is offering free plan and many people are using it instead of configuring their servers properly.
mainx0n00008 They traded privacy over convenience.
mainx0n00009 Cloudflare sits between you and origin webserver, acting like a border patrol agent.
mainx0n00010 You are not able to connect to your chosen destination.
mainx0n00011 You are connecting to Cloudflare and all your information is being decrypted and handed over on the fly.
mainx0n00012 The origin webserver administrator allowed the agent - Cloudflare - to decide who can access to their “web property” and define “restricted area".
mainx0n00013 Take a look at the right image.
mainx0n00014 You will think Cloudflare block only bad guys.
mainx0n00015 You will think Cloudflare is always online(never go down).
mainx0n00016 You will think legit bots and crawlers can index your website.
mainx0n00017 However those are not true at all.
mainx0n00018 Cloudflare is blocking innocent people with no reason.
mainx0n00019 Cloudflare can go down.
mainx0n00020 Cloudflare blocks legit bots.
mainx0n00021 Just like any hosting service, Cloudflare is not perfect.
mainx0n00022 You will see this screen even if the origin server is working well.
mainx0n00023 Do you really think Cloudflare has 100% uptime?
mainx0n00024 You have no idea how many times Cloudflare goes down.
mainx0n00025 If Cloudflare goes down your customer cannot access your website.
mainx0n00026 It is called this in reference to the Great Firewall of China which does a comparable job of filtering out many humans from seeing web content (ie everyone in mainland China and people outside).
mainx0n00027 While at the same time those not affected to see a dratically different web, a web free of censorship such as an image of “tank man” and the history of “Tiananmen Square protests”.
mainx0n00028 Cloudflare possesses great power.
mainx0n00029 In a sense, they control what the end user ultimately sees.
mainx0n00030 You are prevented from browsing the website because of Cloudflare.
mainx0n00031 Cloudflare can be used for censorship.
mainx0n00032 You cannot view cloudflared website if you are using minor browser which Cloudflare may think it is a bot(because not many people use it).
mainx0n00033 You cannot pass this invasive “browser check” without enabling Javascript.
mainx0n00034 This is a waste of five(or more) seconds of your valuable life.
mainx0n00035 Cloudflare also automatically block legit robots/crawlers such as Google, Yandex, Yacy, and API clients.
mainx0n00036 Cloudflare is actively monitoring “bypass cloudflare” community with an intent to break legit research bots.
mainx0n00037 Cloudflare similarly prevents many people who have poor internet connectivity from accessing the websites behind it (for example, they could be behind 7+ layers of NAT or sharing same IP, for example public Wifi) unless they solve multiple image CAPTCHAs.
mainx0n00038 In some cases, this will take 10 to 30 minutes to satisfy Google.
mainx0n00039 In the year 2020 Cloudflare switched from Google’s Recaptcha to hCaptcha as Google intends to charge for its use.
mainx0n00040 Cloudflare told you they care your privacy(“it helps address a privacy concern”) but this is obviously a lie.
mainx0n00041 It is all about money.
mainx0n00042 “hCaptcha allows websites to make money serving this demand while blocking bots and other forms of abuse”
mainx0n00043 From user’s perspective, this doesn’t change much. You are being forced to solve it.
mainx0n00044 Many humans and software are being blocked by Cloudflare every day.
mainx0n00045 Cloudflare annoys many people around the world.
mainx0n00046 Take a look at the list and think whether adopting Cloudflare on your site is good for user experience.
mainx0n00047 What is the purpose of the internet if you cannot do what you want?
mainx0n00048 Most people who visit your website will just look for other pages if they can’t load a webpage.
mainx0n00049 You may be not actively blocking any visitors, but Cloudflare’s default firewall is strict enough to block many people.
mainx0n00050 There is no way to solve the captcha without enabling Javascript and Cookies.
mainx0n00051 Cloudflare is using them to make a browser signature to identify you.
mainx0n00052 Cloudflare needs to know your identity to decide whether you are eligeble to continue browsing the site.
mainx0n00053 Tor users and VPN users are also a victim of Cloudflare.
mainx0n00054 Both solutions are being used by many people who cannot afford uncensored internet due to their country/corporation/network policy or who wants to add extra layer to protect their privacy.
mainx0n00055 Cloudflare is shamelessly attacking those people, forcing them to turn off their proxy solution.
mainx0n00056 If you didn’t try Tor until this moment, we encourage you to download Tor Browser and visit your favorite websites.
mainx0n00057 We suggest you not to login to your bank website or government webpage or they will flag your account. Use VPN for those websites.
mainx0n00058 You might want to say “Tor is illegal! Tor users are criminal! Tor is bad!". No.
mainx0n00059 You might learned about Tor from television, saying Tor can be used to browse darknet and trade guns, drugs or chid porn.
mainx0n00060 While above statement is true that there are many market website where you can buy such items, those sites are often appear on clearnet too.
mainx0n00061 Tor was developed by US Army, but current Tor is developed by the Tor project.
mainx0n00062 There are many people and organizations who use Tor including your future friends.
mainx0n00063 So, if you are using Cloudflare on your website you are blocking real humans.
mainx0n00064 You will lose potential friendship and business deal.
mainx0n00065 And their DNS service, 1.1.1.1, is also filtering out users from visiting the website by returning fake IP address owned by Cloudflare, localhost IP such as “127.0.0.x”, or just return nothing.
mainx0n00066 Cloudflare DNS also break online software from smartphone app to computer game because of their fake DNS answer.
mainx0n00067 Cloudflare DNS cannot query some bank websites.
mainx0n00068 And here you might think,
mainx0n00069 I am not using Tor or VPN, why should I care?
mainx0n00070 I trust Cloudflare marketing, why should I care
mainx0n00071 My website is https why should I care
mainx0n00072 If you visit website which use Cloudflare, you are sharing your information not only to website owner but also Cloudflare.
mainx0n00073 This is how the reverse proxy works.
mainx0n00074 It is impossible to analyze without decrypting TLS traffic.
mainx0n00075 Cloudflare knows all your data such as raw password.
mainx0n00076 Cloudbeed can happen anytime.
mainx0n00077 Cloudflare’s https is never end-to-end.
mainx0n00078 Do you really want to share your data with Cloudflare, and also 3-letter agency?
mainx0n00079 Internet user’s online profile is a “product” that the government and big tech companies wants to buy.
mainx0n00080 U.S. Department of Homeland Security said
mainx0n00081 Do you have any idea how valuable the data you have is? Is there any way you would sell us that data?
mainx0n00082 Cloudflare also offer FREE VPN service called “Cloudflare Warp".
mainx0n00083 If you use it, all your smartphone (or your computer) connections are sent to Cloudflare servers.
mainx0n00084 Cloudflare can know which website you’ve read, what comment you’ve posted, who you’ve talked to, etc.
mainx0n00085 You are voluntary giving all your information to Cloudflare.
mainx0n00086 If you think “Are you joking? Cloudflare is secure.” then you need to learn how VPN works.
mainx0n00087 Cloudflare said their VPN service make your internet fast.
mainx0n00088 But VPN make your internet connection slower than your existing connection.
mainx0n00089 You might already know about the PRISM scandal.
mainx0n00090 It is true that AT&T lets NSA to copy all internet data for surveillance.
mainx0n00091 Let’s say you’re working at the NSA, and you want every citizen’s internet profile.
mainx0n00092 You know most of them are blindly trusting Cloudflare and using it - only one centralized gateway - to proxy their company server connection(SSH/RDP), personal website, chat website, forum website, bank website, insurance website, search engine, secret member-only website, auction website, shopping, video website, NSFW website, and illegal website.
mainx0n00093 You also know they use Cloudflare’s DNS service ("1.1.1.1") and VPN service ("Cloudflare Warp") for “Secure! Faster! Better!” internet experience.
mainx0n00094 Combining them with user’s IP address, browser fingerprint, cookies and RAY-ID will be useful to build target’s online profile.
mainx0n00095 You want their data. What will you do?
mainx0n00096 Cloudflare is a honeypot.
mainx0n00097 Free honey for everyone. Some strings attached.
mainx0n00098 Do not use Cloudflare.
mainx0n00099 Decentralize the internet.
