Thank you for escalating the arms race that's currently destroying the internet. I can't look at the Apple user forums, my health insurance company's portal, pay my county taxes, browse Digikey and Mouser, view Github or whatever forge, etc. etc. without having to jump through Cloudflare or Anubis garbage designed to block your abusive behavior.

I'm just overflowing with joy that you're comfortable wasting my time and money.

Even if it's not the GP, if there's profit to be made, somebody will do it. I was reminded of the power of economic motives the other day, when it turned out someone bought an entire trustworthy reseller just so they could compromise the Ledger supply chain by including a tiny eSIM module that OCRed the screen and transmitted the seed.

Incentives are crazy powerful.

Not always! With sufficiently powerful barriers it can be blocked at least in part.

Shaming awful people is one of available tools.

Or at least not praising them for making small profit at huge costs to others.

Can't argue with doing what we can.
