# The Great Cloudwall

"The Great Cloudwall" is [CloudFlare](https://www.cloudflare.com/), the world's [largest](https://w3techs.com/technologies/history_overview/proxy) MITM proxy([reverse proxy](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reverse_proxy)).

It is called this in reference to the [Great Firewall of China](https://www.comparitech.com/privacy-security-tools/blockedinchina/) which does a comparable job of filtering out *some* people from seeing web content(ie everyone in mainland china and some people outside) while at the same time those not affected to see a dratically different web, a web free of censorship of such images as ["tank man"](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tank_Man).

Cloudflare similarly prevents those in southeast asia and elsewhere who have poor internet connectivity from accessing the websites behind it(for example, they could be behind 7+ layers of NAT) unless they solve multiple image CAPTCHAs. Cloudflare also has a massive [harassment problem](https://web.archive.org/web/20171024040313/http://www.businessinsider.com/cloudflare-ceo-suggests-people-who-report-online-abuse-use-fake-names-2017-5). [Tor users](https://www.torproject.org/) and [VPN users](https://airvpn.org/topic/23090-cloudflare-often-bans-my-ip-address/) are a victim.

And their DNS service, [1.1.1.1](https://1.1.1.1/), is also filtering out users from visiting the website by returning fake IP address owned by Cloudflare or just return nothing. See NEWS.md for more information.

And here you might think, "_I am not using Tor or VPN, why should I care?_".
If you visit website which use Cloudflare, you are sharing your information not only to website owner _but also Cloudflare_.
It is impossible to analyze without [decrypting TLS traffic](https://github.com/nym-zone/block_cloudflare_mitm_fx/issues/15#issuecomment-354773389). Cloudflare knows all your data such as raw password.
[Cloudbeed](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cloudbleed) can happen anytime.
Do you really want to share your data with Cloudflare?
