    I don’t like cloudflare but it’s nice that they allow people to stop AI scrapping if they want to

      CloudFlare has become an Internet protection racket and I’m not happy about it.

            Yeah, a few sites outright refuse to work because cloudflare just poops. EDIT: It was supposed to say “loops”, but I’m keeping it.
