The end game for the web to be scraped into entries in a database to be displayed by real software instead of a web browser.

What rules there are rules? Ban my account I will make a new one until you ban Tor and make an article about how Tor is toxic. YOU ARE PART OF THE PROBLEM, DICKFUCK. In your world, everything is okay, we can pretend the latest script kiddie

You just confused me with someone else. Cloudflare gives me a hard time as a user only. When you view a page with a proxy or shared IP address, you have to solve a captcha or enable JS to see any text with @ in it, and such insanities. Scra

First of all, we have this blog post at least once a year, like top commenter has said. Second, uh, no, you're a moron. Open source now is just completely commercialized. Firefox looks exactly like a 90s garbage web browser that shows

I don't see how being a "gaming" [1] video streaming service implies that you need to take action against gambling that is implemented via it. They will just move somewhere else. Seems like an ultra tunnel visioned political

Exactly this. They used a simple formula to grow their company of posting some novice technical articles to HN ~15 years ago. Then the 2010's standard business practice of "contributing" to open source (I don't consider

I'm saying anti-scraping is a misconception and if you buy it (or get one for free) you just paid for a placebo and it's also worse than nothing. Is there anything confusing about this?

It's UN*X. The one thing it actually does good is having documentation on the system, instead of some weirdo's web page covered in ads. Type man <cmd> or info <cmd> in the shell. Also, for most of the world population,

Thanks for saving me a reply lol

And it's an invalid point. Scraping prevention is the most stupid thing Cloudflare has ever done, and that's after a very long list.

Please tell me the specific way you check your stuff before pasting so I can tell you how it's either broken or you're the 0.001% user and nobody else does that. I've always just pasted into a text editor and recopied it from

How is it possible to be so wrong on so many levels in just two sentences? 1. Your epistemic reasoning capabilities are broken (as in, why do you think people should know better?) 2. You are just adopting an ad-hoc philosophy based on how s

Every point in the article is obvious. As a script kiddie pasting stuff from the internet (including stuff from the victim's website) back in the day, I was acutely aware of the fact that you can't paste something and hit enter an

Ah yes, the legendary UN*X hacker who never pastes into his terminal.

Am I missing something or does everyone here unironically believe that Cloudflare should be punished for kicking a customer off? Because your comment has absolutely zero relevance to the point made by the article.

by unixbane 4y ago
Yeah but probably all vehicles have the same types of vulnerabilities.

by unixbane 4y ago
This is a good thing. We have to worry once this is no longer the case. Meanwhile tell your clients to stop calling eval on user input.

by unixbane 4y ago
Nope. You just conflated the parent comment with an argument of rights.

What a stupid fucking article, including "I grew up with cloudflare, therefore know nothing about how the internet works", and "cloudflare is a racket because I said so and give the benefit of doubt to myself". Web hoste

because web browsers are a gimmicky product that still have bugs like in firefox where you download something at it says 5MB/s for the next 2 days but it stays at 10/1000mb progress

there were already such bugs before, and my analysis is that even the older ECU cars before the 2000s had such bugs, just nobody bothers to look for them (also ECUs have been causing deaths from bugs but they just assume its the driver&#x27
