MODERATORS
It is obvious that Cloudflare is being influenced to enforce browser monopolies. Imagine if Cloudflare existed in 2003 and stopped non Internet Explorer browsers. If you use cloudflare to "protect" your site you are discriminating against browser choice and are as bad as Microsoft in 1998.

Agreed. I use cloudflare for domain hosting because they're cheap, but I have never liked their protections.
