I would disagree. I understand the issues people have with Cloudflare and how their man-in-the-middle as a service business model compromises privacy and internet decentralization in general, but there's just no comparison to Google, whose business model is to build personalized advertising profiles for all of their users.

Some may make more money than others, but if they spy on you it means that they spy on you and eventually sell your data. You're the product. And as someone already said in this thread, you cannot self-host. This appears to be neither decentralized nor private.
