Seriously, #ClownFlare are at best a #ValueRemoving #MITM and more often than not a #RogueISP who's business model is a #RacketeeringScheme that should not exist to begin with.

@kajer #CloudFlare is a #RogueISP and their "business" is at best #ValueRemoving #rentseeking but mire iften than not just a digital #RacketeeringScheme!

@bojkotiMalbona @AAKL the problem with #CloudFlare is that their "#BusinessModel" which is being a #ValueRemoving #RentSeeker - should be as illegal as the #RacketeeringScheme it is if done in #meatspace...

@thenewoil because they work as a #RacketeeringScheme of that kind... ^

@baldur I'd not trust #ClownFlare at all because they are not only a #ValueRemoving - #Rentseeker seeling a #RacketeeringScheme (their entire business model should not exist to begin with!) and besides that they utterly #fail at #DDoS & #scaper- / #crawler protection at all...

For everything re: #Cloudflare being bad, Liz Fong-Jones already made a lenghtly playlist:

@isotopp not to mention the whole concept of paying a 3rd party that (outside of #FLOSS-based OSes like #Linux and #BSD's!) won't habe Sourcecode access and accept their #BinaryBlob #Kernelhack is not only weird per concept but basically a digital #RacketeeringScheme!

In fact, it should be the SOLE RESPONSIBILITY of the #maontainers to actually make their #OS secure - period!

Everything else is just #bait for the #Scareware-based sales pitch that fools #TechIlliterates into becoming victims of said racketeering scheme...

@Flipboard so what?

#LinkTax is a bs idea only dreamed up by the #ContentMafia and I'd also rather #delist shit than to pay a #RacketeeringScheme...
