Unwanted spam emails

Cloudflare is sending spam emails to non-Cloudflare users.

  • Only send emails to subscribers whove opted in
  • When the user say "stop", then stop sending email

It's that simple. But Cloudflare don't care. Cloudflare said using their service can stop all spammers or attackers. How can we stop Cloudflare spammers without activating Cloudflare?


Remove user's review

Cloudflare censor negative reviews. If you post anti-Cloudflare text on Twitter, you have a chance to get a reply from Cloudflare employee with "No, it's not" message. If you post a negative review on any review site, they will try to censor it.


Doxxing users

Cloudflare has a massive harassment problem. Cloudflare shares personal information of those who complain about hosted sites. They sometimes ask you to provide your true ID. If you don't want to get harassed, assaulted, swatted or killed, you better stay away from Cloudflared websites.


Charitable contributions

CloudFlare is asking for charitable contributions. Its quite appalling that an American corporation would ask for charity alongside non-profit organizations that have good causes. If you like blocking people or wasting other people's time, you might want to order some pizzas🍕 for Cloudflare employees.


Terminating sites

What will you do if your site goes down suddenly? There are reports that Cloudflare is deleting user's configuration silently. We suggest you find better provider.
