+
+## Who are we?
+CrimeFlarE is a group of volunteer Tor, privacy and net neutrality
+enthusiasts working to counter CloudFlare’s oppressive attack on the Tor 
+community and reduce the harms CloudFlare brings to all users (Tor users and 
+clearnet users).
+
+## Who is Cloudflare?
+Cloudflare is the world's largest man-in-the-middle proxy. This means that it 
+sits between you and the server which sent you the pages and images.
+
+Cloudflare is a content delivery network, which means that it has different 
+servers in different locations, so that websites are supposed to be better 
+reachable. This has a bad side.

+
+## Why you shouldn't use it
+### Privacy problems
+#### Single point of failure
+Cloudflare goes down from time to time. All the content which uses Cloudflare 
+goes down as well when that happens.
+
+Read more about the 
+[single point of failure](.readme-resources/single-point-of-failure-problem.md).

+
+#### It removes anonymity
+Cloudflare usually blocks Tor or makes it hard for Tor users to access the 
+website or content. Tor is not only for criminals. It is important for many 
+people and everyone has the right on privacy.
+
+Tor is important, read more about 
+[why Tor matters](.readme-resources/why-tor-matters.md).
+
+Cloudflare often uses Google reCATPCHAs to check if you are human. These
+CAPTCHAs which check if you are human, track you and many claim that they
+even try to find out which human you are.
+
+Read more about the
+[reCAPTCHA problem](.readme-resources/recaptcha-problem.md).
+
+#### Project Honey Pot
+Project Honey Pot is a project which collects a lot of personal data
+and much of that data is from innocent people who deserve privacy.
+Cloudflare was created by people who worked on that project.

+
+### Not convenient
+Cloudflare is not convenient for many visitors of your site. You will
+lose visitors when you choose Cloudflare. Many people who helped writing
+this file even block Cloudflare.
+
+Did you know that you can lose visitors because your site doesn't load
+in a few seconds?
+
+Cloudflare often makes visitors wait for a few seconds. Many visitors will
+leave your site when they see this.
+
+### Other problems
+There are other problems as well, but we want to keep this file simple.
+Those problems are listed in
+[another file](.readme-resources/more-cloudflare-problems.md).
+
+## Alternatives
+Do own a website?  
+We created a
+[file with Cloudflare alternatives](.readme-resources/cloudflare-alternatives.md)
+to make your life easier if you agree with us.
+## Solutions
+### Blocking Cloudflare request or IPs
+- [Add-ons](.readme-resources/solutions/add-ons.md)
+- [Cloudflare IPs to block](.readme-resources/solutions/cloudflare-ips.md)
+- [Change default DNS provider of firefox](.readme-resources/solutions/change-firefox-dns.md)
+
+### Share information about the problem
+Many supporters of CrimeFlarE have written some
+[articles](.readme-resources/articles.md) about the problem.
+You can check them out and share them.
+
+You can ask website owners to stop using Cloudflare, please do so in
+a polite way. It might be good to mention some [alternatives](#alternatives).
+
+There are more files on this repository to educate yourself.
+We haven't included them all in the README to keep it fairly readable.
+
+## Not convinced yet?
+Many supporters of CrimeFlarE have written some
+[articles](.readme-resources/articles.md) about the problem.
+You can check them out and share them.
+
+Still not convinced?  
+That's fine. Just know that many people won't be able to use your content or
+website. It works against you.
