well that's the thing, such a huge number of companies route all their traffic through Cloudflare. This is at least partially because for a long time, there was no other company that could really do what Cloudflare does, especially not at the scales they do. As much as I despise Cloudflare as a company, their blog posts about stopping attacks and such are extremely interesting. The amount of bandwidth their network can absorb is jaw-dropping.

I've said to many people/friends that use Cloudflare to look elsewhere. When such a huge percentage of the internet flows through a single provider, and when that provider offers a service that allows them to decrypt all your traffic (if you let them install HTTPS certs for you), not only is that a hugely juicy target for nation-states but the company itself has too much power.

But again, what other companies can offer the insane amount of protection they can?
