- randunel 3y agoYou can't use https://esta.cbp.dhs.gov/esta/ https://esta.cbp.dhs.gov/esta/ from my country without an infinity of hcaptchas by CF turnstile.
- profmonocle 3y agoA particular .gov domain using Cloudflare (although from my DNS lookups, that one is not) is unrelated to Cloudflare managing the authoritative DNS servers for the .gov TLD. The fact that only a specific .gov domain - not all of them - has this issue demonstrates that.
- miyuru 3y agoAre you sure about that? esta.cbp.dhs.gov seems to served by akamai at least for me. Also turnstile and hcaptchas are same product(captcha) by 2 different companies.
- acdha 3y agoHere’s what it looks like from India: https://www.webpagetest.org/result/240210_BiDcTM_7TZ/ https://www.webpagetest.org/result/240210_BiDcTM_7TZ/ That’s definitely an Akamai IP. I’d be quite surprised if they were leading address space to a direct competitor.
