##### What you can do to resist Cloudflare?
|
||
|
||
|
||
|
||
###### Website consumer
|
||
|
||
- If the website you like is using Cloudflare, tell them not to use Cloudflare.
|
||
|
||
> You are just helping corporate censorship and mass surveillance.
|
||
> https://trac.torproject.org/projects/tor/ticket/24351
|
||
|
||
- Try not to use their service. Remember you are being watched by Cloudflare.
|
||
|
||
- Search for other website. There are many alternatives and opportunites on the internet!
|
||
|
||
- If your browser is Firefox, use [Block Cloudflare MITM Attack](https://trac.torproject.org/projects/tor/attachment/ticket/24351/block_cloudflare_mitm_attack-1.0.14.1-an%2Bfx.xpi) add-on. Other alternatives are [Third-party Request Blocker](https://searxes.danwin1210.me/collab/tprb0/get_tprb0.php)(can block or notify) and [Detect Cloudflare](https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/detect-cloudflare/)(notify only).
|
||
|
||
- Convince your friends to use [Tor Browser](https://www.torproject.org/) on the daily basis. Anonymity should be the standard of the open internet!
|
||
|
||
|
||
|
||
###### Website owner / Web developer
|
||
|
||
- Do not use Cloudflare solution. You are loser if you fall to that easy solution. You can do better than that, right?
|
||
|
||
- Install Web Application Firewall (such as OWASP) and Fail2Ban on _your_ server and configure it _properly_.
|
||
|
||
- Set up [Tor Onion Service](https://www.torproject.org/docs/onion-services.html.en) or I2P insite if you believe in freedom and welcome anonymous users.
|
||
|
||
- Ask for advice from other [Clearnet/Tor dual website operators](https://trac.torproject.org/projects/tor/wiki/org/projects/WeSupportTor) and make anonymous friends! :)
|
||
|
||
|
||
|
||
###### Software user
|
||
|
||
- If you use Debian GNU/Linux, or any derivative, subscribe to [bug #831835](https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=831835). And if you can, help verify the patch, and help the maintainer come to the right conclusion on whether it should be accepted.
|
||
|
||
- Always recommend [Tor Browser](https://www.torproject.org/) for desktop and [Orfox](https://guardianproject.info/apps/orfox/) for smartphone. Other software's privacy is imperfect. This doesn't mean Tor browser is "perfect". There is no 100% secure nor 100% private on the internet and technology.
|
||
|
||
|
||
Let's talk about _other software's privacy_...
|
||
|
||
|
||
- If you really need to use Firefox, pick "[Firefox ESR](https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/organizations/)". ESR is developed for company and organizations, thus _some_ spyware code is disabled by default. Portable version is [here](https://portableapps.com/apps/internet/firefox-portable-esr).
|
||
|
||
- Remember, Mozilla is [using Cloudflare service](https://www.robtex.com/dns-lookup/www.mozilla.org). They're also using [Cloudflare's DNS service on their product](https://www.theregister.co.uk/2018/03/21/mozilla_testing_dns_encryption/) D'oh!
|
||
|
||
- Mozilla officially [rejected this ticket](https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1426618).
|
||
|
||
- PaleMoon developer [likes Cloudflare](https://github.com/mozilla-mobile/focus-android/issues/1743#issuecomment-345993097).
|
||
|
||
- Chrome is a [spyware](https://www.gnu.org/proprietary/malware-google.en.html).
|
||
|
||
|
||
|
||
###### Action
|
||
|
||
- Tell others around you about the dangers of Cloudflare. But don't talk with NSA employee; you'll be _definitely_ marked... just kidding!
|
||
|
||
- Help improve this repository, both the lists, the arguments against it and the details.
|
||
|
||
- Document and make very public where things go wrong with Cloudflare (and similar companies), making sure to mention this repository when you do so
|
||
|
||
- Get more people using Tor by default so they can experience the web from the perspective of different parts of the world.
|
||
|
||
- Start groups, in social media and meatspace, dedicated to liberating the world from Cloudflare.
|
||
|
||
- Where appropriate, link to these groups on this repository - this can be a place for coordinating working together as groups.
|
||
|
||
- Start a coop that can provide a meaningful non corporate alternative to Cloudflare.
|
||
|
||
- Let us know of any alternatives to help at least provide multiple layered defence against Cloudflare.
|
||
|
||
- Try using [globalist](globalist.txt) to maintain this list.
|
||
|
||
- If you are in the **United States of America** and the website in question is a bank or an accountant, try to bring legal pressure under the [Gramm–Leach–Bliley Act](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gramm%E2%80%93Leach%E2%80%93Bliley_Act) and report back to us how far you get.
|
||
|
||
- If the website is a government site, try to bring legal pressure under the [1st Amendment of the US Constitution](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/First_Amendment_to_the_United_States_Constitution).
|
||
|
||
- If you are EU citizen, contact the website to send your personal information under the [General Data Protection Regulation](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/General_Data_Protection_Regulation). If they refuse to give you your information, that's a violation of the law.
|
||
|
||
- For companies that claim to _offer service on their website_ try reporting them as "_false advertising_" to consumer protection organizations and BBB. Cloudflare websites are served by Cloudflare servers.
