@kemonine The bot doesn't care about you personally. It's doing a public service for your readers, who you otherwise sent into a #netneutrality-hostile #privacy-abusive walled-garden. It's to protect them so they are warned and have a trustworthy link to follow.
@kemonine "scale" is a big part of the problem with CloudFlare, who has #centralized over 10% of the web into the restricted walled-garden of one single corporate power with access to enough sensitive traffic all in one place to make every spy org in the world salivate.
You say "expertise"; I say "incompetence". No service of this kind is as poor at separating attack traffic from legitimate traffic as CloudFlare. No one is even close to their level of collateral damage.
@kemonine An archive page is not good at moving information the other direction, so users are less inclined to fill forms and do HTTP PUT ops. As for HTTP GET, CF doesn't see or track who reads archive.org, who is less of a threat precisely because of its smaller scale as well as the traffic being mostly one directional. Archive.org also does not treat #Tor users with hostility, thus not driving ppl off Tor.
