@heiseonlineenglish #ClownFlare is part of the problem, not the solution!
- #Blackholing exist as a means of combatting #DDoS at arbitrary size on any #IX!
#RogueISP
@bastetfurry #Clownflare ist so ein value-removing rentseeker und #RogueISP dass ich die #DROP (don't route or peer)!
@fuchsiii it's called #ClownFlare, because #CloudFlare are a #RogueISP #clowning around!
@Talen_Lee #HostHavoc sounds like some #RogueISP similar to #pfCloud or #Cloudflare...
@creideiki the sheer fact that #ClownFlare is discriminating like that is the cire priblem but since we ain't in the position to "Sparta-Kick" that #RogueISP I can agree on that.
- If you find a solution to it please let me know as well, cuz I'm shure just invoking
wget -4 https://domain.example/file.sample(orcurl -o -4for that matter) isn't an option for you? Cuz that's how I workaround these issues in #bash most of the time...
@JamieNemeth #ClownFlare is just value-removing bullshit.
@revogt und exakt diese #Enshittification mit #GAFAMs und #RogueISP|s wie #CloudFlare ist das Problem.
- Wer #ClownFlare, #aws, #Azure, #GCP & Co. nutzt hat aufgegeben, irgendeine Kontrolle über #Kosten, #Verfügbarkeit, #Datenschutz oder #Geschwindigkeit zu haben.
Gibt.nen Grund weshalb ich schon 2021 nen #CloudExit begleitet habe!
@GossiTheDog it's still flabberghasting to me why anyone would want to use #ClownFlare as they are a #RogueISP that don't give a shit about abuses and literally facilitate abuse by doxxing Abuse-Reporters to the abusers!
- I mean, who doesn't remember the shitshow of them hosting #KiwiFarms?

@stefano precisely that is my gripe!
For what #ClownFlare, #aws, #GCP & #Azure charge, they shure as hell are so unreliable that if it was me doing that shite, I'd be #sued into insolvency by my #clients for #damages due to loss of revenue and profit!
Whoever still uses these #ValueRemoving #RentSeekers - espechally #CloudFlare which is a #RogueISP - shouldn't be allowed to touch anything more complex than a landline phone or lightswitch!
In fact, I did accompany a [fmr.] employer/client on their #CloudExit because of escalating costs and worse availability than if they invest 8 digits into hardware, get that colocated/housed and pay for occasional Hands-on!
@blogdiva @ophiocephalic @FediPact @subMedia also #ClownFlare is a #RogueISP knowingly and willingly enabling and supporting #Cybercrime as well as #StochasticTerrorism by hosting #TerroristOrganizations like #KiwiFarms (they only dropped those after bigger customers threatened to cancel #CloudFlare and their entire ASN got #DROP'd!) and #Daesh, making #AbuseReporting useless as they literally d0x any #AbuseReport to the offenders!

@mxtiffanyleigh Granted, I have neither pity nor mercy for those that are still stupid enough to rely on #Enshittified #RogueISP|s and Garbage #Hosting Companies...
- #ClownFlare may have fired #KiwiFarms, but they only did so because bigger clients threatened to cancel them, not because they condemn serial violators of their ToS and #StochasticTerrorism!

@alex #ClownFlare are just "Vibing Internet" as a #RogueISP!
https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLI84-gNHkUdvE1u_Kfz3qS9h75n-m-T3y
@sambowne LMAO!
Seriously, whoever still uses that #shitshow of a #RogueISP?

@alios wer #ClownFlare nutzt, ist selbst schuld!
- Ernsthaft, es gibt keinen "legitimen Grund" dem Drecksladen auch nur 1¢ Geld bzw. 1 bit Traffic zu geben!
#KeinBackupKeinMitleid #CloudFlare #RogueISP #Enshittification #Centralization #Decentralization #Centralization #DropCloudflare #DontRouteOrPeer
@da_667 #AI-based "#VibeCoding" or 'disgruntled (Ex-?) customers' revenge'…
- Either way, #ClownFlare has always been shit even before they decided to embrace being evil and a #RogueISP:

@halcy @kestral also fuck #ClownFlare for being the PoS #RogueISP they are!
- Yes, I'll neither forgive nor forget them for hosting KiwiFarms…
Also #GamersNexus' Website is unreachable because they use #ClownFlare which seem fucking incompetent as they are a #RogueISP!
@anyia AFAICT they don't and one has to explicitly 403 them using .htaccess or other means.
- Also #ClownFlare doesn't even throttle them, because they are a #RogueISP run by "FreezePeach" assholes…
In fact #ByteSpider aggressively circumvents blockings!
@zynaesthesie Und natürlich endet mastodon.id-52849.pro und id-52849.pro auf 172.67.208.214 welches im Addressblock 172.64.0.0/13 vom größten #RogueISP, #CloudFlare aka. #ClownFlare, liegt.
Und ClownFlare doxxen aus Prinzip Leute die #AbuseReports einreichen an deren Kunden, welche Ursache für den Report sind.
Also ist #AbuseReporting sinnlos und die einzig korrekte Herangehensweise ist #ReportThemBlockThem im #Fediverse sowie Domain Blocklisting.
Ich hab daher jene domain auf meine öffentliche Blocklist gepackt die unter
https://raw.githubusercontent.com/greyhat-academy/lists.d/main/drop.domains.block.list.tsv
frei verfügbar ist und von dort in jedes System [egal ob #PiHole oder #pfBlockerNG) importiert und updated werden kann...
Falls dir weitere Domains auffallen lass' es mich wissen...
