Did the owners of .com do the same thing? Because http://com . Works as well.

I notice it works for pretty much every TLD, including .com too. http://com . resolves to http://www.com http://cd . shows a list of all such sites. It seems likely that the browser has some kind of logic i

Okay..WTF? http://ai . Didn’t work on Chrome Mac but it works in Safari for iOS. Is this a bug or how the hell is this possible? It’s flipping everything I thought I knew about domains upside down.

It wasn’t a mistake it was a strategic cost benefit analysis. Many people myself included don’t even use the webcam at all and would rather keep it blocked with a sticker most of the time. If most people statistically don’t use webcam on th

Why do they think they have the right to kill domains that people have entrusted them with their custodianship? I don't understand why they have to set any domain to pendingDelete status, short of a court order. It sounds like somethin

Not everyone shares your enthusiasm. Yes, this is good for foreigners and corporations but it comes at the expense of native workers. it suppresses wages(often times immigrants are willing to do the same jobs at lower salaries), as well as

I implore you to consider alerting media outlets about Cloudflares abusive actions anyway. More needs to be down to expose CloudFlare’s abusive actions. They can’t keep getting away with this.

It’s sickening. They are committing a massive crime here and getting away with it. It’s time somebody alerts the media and blow the whistle on Cloudflares abusive actions. I wonder how many customers domains Cloudflare stole/deleted wh

by 5ESS 4y ago
That’s terrifying. By far the worst part of this. If they ban somebody for TOS violations that is fair, but preventing people from transferring out their domain and setting it to pendingdelete is really insidious. What they are doing is aki

Say that, despite your linked recommendations for hiding the public IP, thousands of customers were under the impression that as long as no one leaked the IP, no one would be able to discover the site. They’re paying you a lot of money for

Thanks for clarifying that it had to be Github. The post you replied to says Gitbub or Cloudflare take it down. Either way, this issue should be brought to customers attention more clearly. Most people probably don’t know that the entire i

They stopped blocking them now but used to in the past. Additionally, there are privacy reasons a person may wish to access a service directly and not be tracked by Cloudflare.

by 5ESS 4y ago
It’s a story in itself that a simple script which locates a site’s real IP was taken down for TOS violations. Cloudflare doesn’t own the real IPs or something so it’s really unclear why they (or GitHub) were entitled to take down this repos

I don’t trust Shodan (a Corporation) not to hide / omit certain results or certain ranges. A self hosted scanner that could be deployed on a cheap VPS would be a better solution. having the ability to scan the entire internet is pretty

Before CloudFlare sends the FBI to my house..I’m not actually going to code this. It’s just an idea that exposes a problem. The problem is there’s a lot of Cloudflare customers who don’t have their servers configured properly to defend from

What % of Cloudflare customers actually have their server set to only accept traffic from cloudflare IPs? Probably not the majority. If this is coming as a surprise to people then maybe Cloudflare isn’t doing enough to help people secure th

A valid use case for wanting to know the “real” IP of a site hiding behind CloudFlare is being able to access the website from a Tor IP address (which they categorically block). For users in a country with censored internet, such a service

So there’s only 4.2 billion possible IPv4 addresses where a site can live. A lot are reserved or unused, leaving about 3.7 billion possibilities. Household internet speeds are fast enough that it is within the realm of possibility that a c

It shouldn’t even be a popular website in the first place. Shady founder, shady company, poor product that abuses the user’s trust. you’re not helping the situation by advertising it for free.
