Well, time to spend the weekend starting to #DropCloudflare from my websites. It's not much traffic and just free tier, but I'd rather pay for a different service than support an organization like what @Cloudflare has shown themselves to be.

@defiines Well, then let’s simulate. Let’s say you have a website, and I tell CloudFlare to block it. If you don’t have anything on their CDN, the worst they can do is terminate your account and poison your DNS routing so that your site doesn’t resolve. BUT, ISP’s systems auto-fix this.

@micahnightwolf I agree with this, but there's objectively no better service that offers a free tier better (or the same as) Cloudflare's free tier. It would be *really* hard. There's AWS CloudFront, but its worse and, well, Amazon. Others are just $$$ to get the same features, unfortunately.

There's something about the Cloudflare situation that not everyone is fully aware of I don't think, if you didn't grow up in the scenes I grew up in or work for a web host. I should start with, I think Cloudflare kinda suck and should drop the hate site as a customer. But.

One way to tell something's bad is when it tarnishes the reputations of those who rush to defend it. Those who are defending Cloudflare as merely hosting a 'controversial' site ... your reputation is being damaged by defending hate and terror.

I can't really talk about this in detail but cloudflare are an immoral company and you should not support them

@PalZer0 @cameronwilson It's use in this case? People want Cloudflare to drop Kiwi Farms so they can DDoS the the site. That's a criminal act. Activists are being vague talking about 'hosting' but the only service cloudflare provide to Kiwi Farms is DDoS protection .

@Brandon__Hu The website in question is irrelevant. It doesn't matter how much you or I might disagree with the content; if Cloudflare takes down sites due to public pressure, they will inevitably come under *more* pressure by others to do the same.. Israel and Saudi are masters at that!

@Cloudflare your willingness to support websites that harass marginalized groups is disgusting. Why do you promote hate?

@keffals You fool ngl if you close cloudflare you do not go against everyone for WHO GAMES because as a someone I know a bit about it, checking all the content will slow down the speed and people use cloudflare DNS to get stable and low ping in games which with other DNS would be-))

@werdnum @lizthegrey Kinda does. Not a big fan of expending limited effort and attention on tactics that are unlikely to impact the result. The direct action against cloudflare right now is far more influential, IMHO. eSafety is as useless as a chocolate teapot, and unlikely to help.

@marcan42 I only use CloudFlare's DNS & their free WARP service. I'm not giving them any money, but I still want to switch. Are there any alternatives to WARP that work for Windows, Debian, & Android? I already know I can replace their 1.1.1.1 DNS with Google's 8.8.8.8.

@keffals I thought of a good idea that might make Cloudflare take KF down, so if @eastdakota got doxxed and put on the forums surely he's more likely to want to stop providing Cloudflare services for them right?

@ErrataRob Cloudflare has the censored 1.1.1.3 service but putting that aside no one is asking for a DNS block of Kiwi Farms.

(@BobtheBeholder) reported
@Cloudflare Interesting that you use money to advertise your service to me in a sponsored tweet. Perhaps it's even money from kiwi farms? What about dropping them?

@GeneFrienby this sucks for me, specifically, because i just use cloudflare for free ssl certs, so this will probably fall into the "everything just costs more money now" basket by next week

(@BeeHiveCyberSec) reported
@defiines > CloudFlare’s primary service is as a security service > The majority of customer’s don’t pay CloudFlare a single cent > Who funds the hours used to review and moderate content reports? Not to mention that CloudFlare disabling sites could actually be counterintuitive.

Never heard of #Kiwifarms before. I am not sure if the campaign against #Cloudflare has the desired effect. 🤔

@micahnightwolf that + Cloudflare's DNS and ability to save a ton of bandwidth, and a ton of other stuff like DDoS protection (still for free) is just... chef kiss. CF is just way too big to take down.
-
Pape Ricard
(@PapeRicard) reported
@keffals DDoS attacks are illegal. The service cloudflare provides to kiwifarms is DDoS protection. You are indirectly campaigning for illegal things to happen. This is the worst angle of attack, since it reminds that KF is legal, and will solidify the trust of cloudflares customers.

I'm not going to get into the specifics of the one case that's bringing it up but as a Cloudflare customer it's more than a little concerning how entrenched they're becoming over this. Suggests they're not only well aware of other/worse customers but they may well rely on them...

@itsrekki You're not feeding the cloudflare, so I'm not talking about you. You're fine. I'm talking about the ones who operate at an enterprise or small business level where they need to pay for the premium service. That's how cloudflare makes their money, and those people are leaving.
-

(@itsrekki) reported
@micahnightwolf Not exactly worth it.... Cloudflare is a service you sign up to, you don't exactly employ them, they're a DNS & CDN. I don't even know any service, even large ones, that is genuinely switching from CF to another one. It's way too expensive and much for what the end goal is.

BeeHive CyberSecurity
(@BeeHiveCyberSec) reported
@defiines ISP’s have backup DNS routing to protect from this many-a-time - and it’s not practically something CloudFlare could provide as a service without drastically expanding their team.

I think it may have been a CloudFlare issue. Let's see what happens when I disable it.

Shutting down KiwiFarms is the ultimate goal, but helping convince others in tech to have convos with CloudFlare is the one way I feel I can help as a dumb IT nerd.

@TimeToChange157 @Cloudflare @keffals DNS primarily. Also was going to use them for failover on a website I was working on to take down scam bots but will move somewhere else.

@ErrataRob @eastdakota A cloudflare client's website contains lies about me, including that I authored an essay about ****** and murdering gymnasts, except I never used the originating ISP. I was impersonated. This is a provable lie that Cloudflare has let stand; I've gotten death threats over it.
