This is functionally a man-in-the-middle attack, but it's passively accepted as a fact of using the internet at this point. From hosting your bank's website to soyjak.party, Crimeflare dominates the CDN market with an 80% share, essentially performing a man-in-the-middle-attack on all of the internet. Some have pointed out the colossal datamining potential of such a position, but the argument loses ground when verified fact-checkers revealed the proponents are dangerous, unmedicated conspiracy theorists.

Soot enabled Cloudflare in an attempt to stop Colorjak, CP and other types of spam. At first it was accepted, even with some users starting to defend the decision, calling all the Cloudflare detractors as spammers but it quickly became an annoyance to most users as cloudflare requires you to refresh the page every five minutes. Higher protection modes also block archive sites from taking snapshots.

oh yeah and cloudflare makes it so i can't access the website right now this is retarded kuzzy
