| Just like any [hosting service](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Web_hosting_service), Cloudflare is not perfect. You will see this screen [even if the origin server is working well](../PEOPLE.md). |  |
|
||||
| Do you really think Cloudflare has 100% [uptime](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Uptime)? [You have no idea](../PEOPLE.md) how many times Cloudflare [goes down](https://www.zerohedge.com/markets/major-part-web-offline-cloudflare-suffers-outage). If Cloudflare goes down your customer cannot access your website. | <br> |
|
||||
| It is called this in reference to the [Great Firewall of China](https://www.comparitech.com/privacy-security-tools/blockedinchina/) which does a comparable job of [filtering out many humans](../PEOPLE.md) from seeing web content (ie everyone in [mainland China](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/China) and people outside) while at the same time those not affected to see a dratically different web, a web free of [censorship](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Internet_censorship) such as an image of ["tank man"](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tank_Man) and the history of ["Tiananmen Square protests"](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1989_Tiananmen_Square_protests#Censorship_in_China). |  |

| Cloudflare possesses [great power](http://digdeep4orxw6psc33yxa2dgmuycj74zi6334xhxjlgppw6odvkzkiad.onion/ghost/mozilla.html). In a sense, they control what the end user ultimately sees. You are prevented from browsing the website because of Cloudflare. |  |

| Cloudflare can be used for censorship. |  |
|
||||
| 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). |  |
|
||||
| You cannot pass this invasive "browser check" without enabling Javascript. This is a waste of five(or more) seconds of your valuable life. |  |

| In the year 2020 Cloudflare switched from [Google's Recaptcha](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Recaptcha) to [hCaptcha](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/HCaptcha) as Google [intends to charge](https://professionalhackers.in/cloudflare-dumps-recaptcha-as-google-intends-to-charge-for-its-use/) for its use. Cloudflare told you they care your privacy(["it helps address a privacy concern"](https://blog.cloudflare.com/moving-from-recaptcha-to-hcaptcha/)) but this is obviously a lie. It is all about money. "[hCaptcha](https://www.hcaptcha.com/) allows websites to make money serving this demand while blocking bots and other forms of abuse" |  |

| From user's perspective, this doesn't change much. You are being forced to solve it. | <br> |
|

| Many humans and software are being blocked by Cloudflare [every day](../PEOPLE.md). |  |
|
||||
| Cloudflare [annoys many people](../PEOPLE.md) around the world. Take a look at the list and think whether adopting Cloudflare on your site is good for user experience. |  |
|
||||
| What is the purpose of the internet if you cannot do what you want? Most people who visit your website will just look for other pages if they can't load a webpage. You may be not blocking any visitors, but Cloudflare's default firewall is strict enough to block many people. | <br> |

|

| There is no way to solve the captcha without enabling Javascript and Cookies. Cloudflare is [using them](../PEOPLE.md) to make a browser signature to [identify](https://cryptome.org/2016/07/cloudflare-de-anons-tor.htm) [you](../PEOPLE.md). Cloudflare needs to know your identity to decide whether you are eligeble to continue browsing the site. |  |
|

| [Tor users](https://www.torproject.org/) and [VPN users](https://airvpn.org/topic/23090-cloudflare-often-bans-my-ip-address/) are also a [victim](https://blog.torproject.org/trouble-cloudflare) of Cloudflare. 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. Cloudflare is shamelessly attacking those people, forcing them to turn off their proxy solution. |  |
|
||||
| If you didn't try Tor until this moment, we encourage you to [download Tor Browser](https://www.torproject.org/) and visit your favorite websites. (advice: _Do not login to your bank website or government webpage or they will flag your account. [Use VPN](https://www.vpngate.net/en/) for those websites._) |  |
