    I’m talking about services that Cloudflare actively provides and that may not be transparent to the visitor

    Have you actually read the thread you posted? Did you notice someone linking to the Cloudflare documentation? Did you see that this is all done based on data they gathered from a feature the customer needs to enable themselves?

    WTF is going on here? There’s a feature that says “we’ll scan your creds if you let us an let you know if you’re exposed”, some people enabled it, and then other people went up in arms that Cloudflare scanned those creds?? What is this Mickey Mouse bullshit?

    If you feel like you need them you probably shouldn’t publicly host stuff on the internet in the first place

    “If you feel like you can’t handle manual transmission, you shouldn’t drive a car”. And yet, automatic became a thing.

      @Alaknar@sopuli.xyz Have you read that I talked about the visitor of a site from the beginning and the responsibility towards someones users?

      Luring me to a service from another country that maybe knowingly even uses their own certificates to decrypt my traffic through their reverse proxy is not.

      “maybe” = depending if the feature is enabled or not. “knowingly” = if the customer deliberately let’s them decrypt my connections.
      Connecting me to a service from a surveillance state is bad, enabling such a feature without my knowledge is even worse.

      “If you feel like you can’t handle manual transmission, you shouldn’t drive a car”. And yet, automatic became a thing.

      A better comparison would probably be driving on autopilot without a license and hoping that it never fails.
