# The Great Cloudwall
"The Great Cloudwall" is [CloudFlare](https://www.cloudflare.com/), the world's [largest](https://w3techs.com/technologies/history_overview/proxy) MITM proxy([reverse proxy](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reverse_proxy)).
It sits between you and origin webserver, acting like a [border patrol agent](https://www.cbp.gov/careers/bpa).
The origin webserver administrator allowed the agent to decide who can access to their "web property" and define "restricted area".

[Tor users](https://www.torproject.org/) and [VPN users](https://airvpn.org/topic/23090-cloudflare-often-bans-my-ip-address/) are also a victim. 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.

Cloudflare also has a massive [harassment problem](https://web.archive.org/web/20171024040313/http://www.businessinsider.com/cloudflare-ceo-suggests-people-who-report-online-abuse-use-fake-names-2017-5).
Cloudflare shares personal information of those who complain about hosted sites. They sometimes ask you to provide
your true ID. If you don't want to get swatted or killed, better stay away from Cloudflare.
