> This is funny coming from Cloudflare, the company that blocks most of the internet from being fetched with antispam checks even for a single web request.
Am I misunderstanding something. I (the site owner) pay Cloudflare to do this. It is my fault this happens, not Cloudflare's.
You’re paying Cloudflare to not get DDoS-attacked or swamped by illegitimate requests. GP is implying that Cloudflare could do a better job of not blocking legitimate, benign requests.
Then we're all operating with very different definitions of legitimate or benign!
I've only ever seen a Cloudflare interstitial when viewing a page with my VPN on, for example -- something I'm happy about as a site owner and accept quite willingly as a VPN user knowing the kinds of abuse that occur over VPN.
