The whole thing is behind cloudflare!

Anonymity is responsibility of a visitor in any case. If the visitor's anonymity depends on some website not storing logs, the visitor lost already.

Your browser knows more about you than you do. When accessing a website, anonymous or not, it sends a fingerprint so to speak to that site and its ad network. It’s there that your anonymity ceases and you are identified, classified, segmented, and fed more “How to stay safe online” ads. There’s no escaping it. Chromium is not to be trusted.

in 2025, can small and medium businesses afford to be exposed to the world wild web? You don't need to be a major site these days to be DDosed on the regular

Who gets ddosed on the regular? Spam is a regular problem, but I have never encountered a ddos on a business website.

Baseless fear mongering. I've had webservers raw-dogging the Internet for about 25 years. Nothing of any consequence has happened. Hasn't happened to anyone I know, either. Anecdata yes, but people are making it sound like running a webserver is like connecting a Windows XP machine to the internet - instant pwnage. It isn't.

I've been DDoS'ed exactly once. In 2003 I got into a pointless internet argument on IRC, and my home connection got hammered, which of course made me lose the argument by default. I activated my backup ISDN, so my Diablo 2 game was barely interrupted.

>I've had webservers

But have those webservers supported a small or medium-sized business?

Mine do, although I do use Cloudflare.

I've periodically removed Cloudflare because of issues with reissuing SSL certs, Cloudflare being down, and other reasons, and haven't noticed any problems.

The biggest benefit I get from Cloudflare is blocking scraper robots, which I've just been too lazy to figure out how to do myself.

Mine did. Mine do. Never a problem. Not once.

Yes. The whole "you will be ddosd if you are exposed to the world wide web" is fud. (And/or racketeering)

Despite what Cloudflare wants you to think, yes, yes they can.

Also you can sue whoever DDoSes you and put them in jail. It's easier than it used to be, since the internet is heavily surveilled now. The malicious actors with really good anonymity aren't wasting it attacking a nobody.
