Daily reminder that sites “protected” by cloudflare are effectively MITM attacks. HTTPS is now even more worthless. Cloudflare can see everything. this is a known fact and not a theory.

And if you think Cloudflare aren’t being tapped by the NSA, you’re sadly sadly naive.

All the “privacy respecting” sites use it too. So remember, as soon as you see that cloudflare portal page, you can assume that everything you plug into the site is property of NSA Inc. Trust no one, and do not trust code being served to you over the web if it comes through CF, there is no way to know what they’ve modified.

    I mean most pirate sites have cloudfare in the front and even with legal request Cloudfare has denied giving the IP so many times.

      It’s far more useful for them to maintain that image while essentially acting as a giant Room 101 for the entire internet. The three letter agencies, the fusion centers, and the Five Eyes of this world caneasily just parallel construction their way into what ever legal shenanigans they need.
