Holy shit, *all* #indian #internet #traffic is #monitored by their #government https://entrackr.com/2022/11/exclusive-i.. Worse still, when a site uses #cloudflare , the #government essentially sees #plaintext #http and can even #inject their own #content https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=335.. What's even more concerning is that other #governments are almost certainly also doing the same.
Not sure how to feel about this #cloudflare #blocking #kiwifarms from their #ddos #service https://blog.cloudflare.com/kiwifarms-bl.. In terms of #freespeech , it seems like a real #shame . In terms of #illegal #activities such as #swatting and #doxxing , good riddance. If this is the bar to entry, surely other #social #media such as #facebook and #twitter could equally be #banned ? They did it to #parler after all...
Screw using #cloudflare to #ssh into all of my #servers https://orth.uk/ssh-over-cloudflare/ I wrote just the other say an #article on #coffeespace how I moved from their #dns #service and that you can't really trust them at all: https://coffeespace.org.uk/projects/bye-..
#cloudflare just being outright called out by #fastly on their #edge #computation #benchmarks https://www.fastly.com/blog/debunking-cl.. Bare in mind, #cloudflare has actively #hostile #business practices...
These #ddos #attacks are getting absolutely wild, #cloudflare not long ago fended off a 2Tbps #network #layer #attack - that is actually insane: https://blog.cloudflare.com/cloudflare-b..

I think I need a #youtube #alternative !#laptop is screeching to a halt right now - out of #ram and #cpu ... Desperately need a new #machine , this one is really on its last legs during these days.
Interesting to see #cloudflare releasing a #filtered #dns #domain #lookup #service - I hope this does not become the #default https://blog.cloudflare.com/introducing-..

That's really quite something, I couldn't possibly imagine running a #service that deals with so much #traffic ! Sounds like hell.Ouch, due to #facebook #dns not #resolving - their #users were #ddosing their own #servers #recursively trying to #reconnect https://twitter.com/blazejkrajnak/status..
I just went to access https://facebook.com and found out it was down: https://downforeveryoneorjustme.com/face.. https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=287.. Apparently #facebook #bgp #routers are #withdrawn from the #internet https://twitter.com/JatayuOSINT/status/1.. It's unclear at this time whether it is related to #cloudflare 's #service ...
Very interesting, it appears that #cloudflare 's #dns can fail to resolve #archive #website #service https://archive.is due to a lack of #edns https://jarv.is/notes/cloudflare-dns-arc.. It's really not easy to figure out who is in the right or wrong here, I kind of respect the opinion of both sides.
At this point I'm quite concerned about the future of the #internet with #ddos attacks becoming increasingly more capable: https://krebsonsecurity.com/2021/09/kreb.. This new #meris #ddos knocked out #yandex ( #russian #searchengine ), #cloudflare and #krebsonsecurity ... It seems like the small internet (personal #blogs etc) are doomed to be yeeted off the face of the internet.
Maybe one day my website will need to sit behind some #cloudflare / #network #protection #service - but not today! https://kmitov.com/posts/when-the-police.. Interesting that #cloudflare are essentially #ddos 'ing the people they are supposed to protect! I mostly get #searchengine #bots in my logs requesting from this website...
