### Unwanted spam emails
### CloudFlare spams people
Cloudflare is sending spam emails to non-Cloudflare users.
- Only send emails to subscribers whove opted in
- When the user say "stop", then stop sending email
It's that simple. But Cloudflare don't care.

Cloudflare said using their service [can stop all spammers or attackers](https://support.cloudflare.com/hc/en-us/articles/200170066-Will-activating-Cloudflare-stop-all-spammers-or-attackers-).
How can we stop _Cloudflare spammers_ without activating Cloudflare?

### Charitable contributions
### Corporate solicitation of charitable contributions
CloudFlare is asking for [charitable contributions](https://web.archive.org/web/20191112033605/https://opencollective.com/cloudflarecollective#section-about). Its quite appalling that an American corporation would ask for charity alongside non-profit organizations that have good causes. If you like [blocking people or wasting other people's time](PEOPLE.md), you might want to order some pizzas🍕 for Cloudflare employees.

### Browser vendor discrimination
CloudFlare gives preferential treatment to those using Firefox while
giving hostile treatment to users of non-Mozilla-based browsers over
Tor. Tor users of who (rightfully) refuse to execute non-free
javascript also receive hostile treatment. This access inequality is
a network neutrality abuse and an abuse of power.
| ***browser*** | ***access treatment*** |
| --- | --- |
| Firefox (with non-free javascript enabled; incl. Tor Browser) | access permitted |
| Chromium (with non-free javascript enabled) | access degraded (pushes Google reCAPTCHA) |
| Chromium or Firefox (with non-free javascript disabled) | access denied (pushes *broken* Google reCAPTCHA) |
| lynx | access denied |
| w3m | access denied |
| wget | access denied |

### Voter suppression
Voters in US states register to vote ultimately through the state
secretary's website in the state of their residence.
Republican-controlled state secretary offices engage in voter
suppression by proxying the state secretary's website through
CloudFlare. CloudFlare's hostile treatment of Tor users, its MitM
position as a centralized global point of surveillance, and its
detrimental role overall makes prospective voters reluctant to
register. Liberals in particular tend to embrace privacy. Voter
registration forms collect sensitive information about a voter's
political leaning, personal physical address, social security number,
and date of birth. Most states only make a subset of that information
publicly available, but CloudFlare sees ***all*** that information
when someone registers to vote.
Note that paper registration does not circumvent CloudFlare because
the secretary of state data entry staff workers will likely use the
CloudFlare website to enter the data.
