Yea, I appreciate them protecting it from DDOS. I always viewed them as a responsible company.
To me this feels irresponsible and like it's main goal is to forward autonomous cyber attacks. Which is antithetical to what they do? Maybe I am missing the legitimate use case here, but I can only see this being used for removing responsibility from crime or espionage?
Does anyone know offhand if cloudflare is a department of war contractor? I never looked into it. But this smells funny to me
Somehow the Internet needs biometrics and age verification everywhere but also chat bots can buy property there without too much thought.
Most people don't get DDOSed, and for many of the ones that do, they can just wait it out until the attacker gets tired of burning money. It's very costly and risky for the attacker. Obviously they do occur sometimes - so does murder - but Cloudflare is massively exaggerating the risk of drive-by shootings to make you buy their bulletproof vests.
