Daily reminder that sites "protected" by cloudflare are effectively MITM attacks. HTTPS is now even more worthless. Cloudflare can see everything. this is a known fact and not a theory.

And if you think Cloudflare aren't being tapped by the NSA, you're sadly sadly naive.

All the "privacy respecting" sites use it too. So remember, as soon as you see that cloudflare portal page, you can assume that everything you plug into the site is property of NSA Inc. Trust no one, and do not trust code being served to you over the web if it comes through CF, there is no way to know what they've modified.

Lol that piece paper is not a god. It's useless jibberish written by traitors starting a now failed nation.

You have no rights in the USA. Everything you're granted as a right, you are also denied as a right by other laws. It's the playbook of a tyrannical society. Name ANY law that you have a right to, and then look up to find another law taking that exact right away from you.

Just like a tyrannical society, you're guaranteed nothing. But you can fly under the radar if you agree with the political powers that be. Which is no different than any country at any point in history.
