indyradio<p>Cloudflare is used by some real troublemakers for exactly the opposite of what it claims. The different Cloudflare net blocks are very different from each other in their behavior, just exactly like <a href="https://kafeneio.social/tags/Fastly" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Fastly</span></a>, which owns an Israeli spyware company and half of it's addresses are a threat you should block. (Fastly 146... was an <a href="https://kafeneio.social/tags/Israeli" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Israeli</span></a> spyware company, that was absorbed by Fastly)</p>

Someone on fedi shared the, iirc, non-archived version of this link and i was curious.</p><p><strong>I made a note of the browser crash in october, i must've had JS enabled because my note says "reqJs"</strong></p><p>I have only just in the past few days had a chance to READ the note and revisit the page. As a part-time "coincidence suspector" I find it interesting that loading that page caused my browser to die instantly.... it doesn't now (not that that means much). If i had a chance to read it in october i'd have had a good few things to say about so-called "(<a class="hashtag" href="https://wizard.casa/collections/tags/wateringhole" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#wateringHole</a>) attacks". I feel a *cough* coming on....</p><p>The following are mentioned in the atricle, as attacked sites (my notes in parenthesis):</p><p>- <a class="hashtag" href="https://wizard.casa/collections/tags/rojnews" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#rojnews</a> .news * COUGH* (<a class="hashtag" href="https://wizard.casa/collections/tags/cloudflare" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#cloudflare</a> (cf), not visited)<br>- <a class="hashtag" href="https://wizard.casa/collections/tags/hawarnews" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#hawarnews</a> .com (cf, not visited)<br>- <a class="hashtag" href="https://wizard.casa/collections/tags/targetplatform" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#targetplatform</a> .net (packed with youtube videos, seems westernized)</p><p>I'd be VERY interested to know whether the sites above were cf during/before this attack but either way this is quite concerning, if the site was cf before the attack that could address HOW those sites were breached in the first place. If cf during the attack, then cf has failed in its mission to protect from the <a class="hashtag" href="https://wizard.casa/collections/tags/cyberattack" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#cyberattack</a>. If the sites became cf after, then we must ask do sites immediately become cf'd when a problem emerges? Would Kurdish outlets knowingly have a policy like that? Do the site owners EVEN KNOW the site is cf?

They DO have a responsibility.</p><p>The only things they have to do, instead if trying to fool us with the usual "freedom of speech" rubbish:</p><p>(1) Refuse anonymous or obviously identity-spoofing customers, such as:</p><p>&nbsp;&nbsp;• complaints-booking[.]info<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;• defi-chainfix.pages[.]de<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;• evri.mylocal-parcel-gb[.]com<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;• loginmicrosoftonlinecom.pages[.]dev<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;• ing.es-areacliente[.]com</p><p>See also <a href="https://www.trustwave.com/en-us/resources/blogs/spiderlabs-blog/its-raining-phish-and-scams-how-cloudflare-pages-dev-and-workers-dev-domains-get-abused/" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://www.</span><span class="ellipsis">trustwave.com/en-us/resources/</span><span class="invisible">blogs/spiderlabs-blog/its-raining-phish-and-scams-how-cloudflare-pages-dev-and-workers-dev-domains-get-abused/</span></a> for abuse of Cloudflare's free workers.dev and pages.dev domains (the article is 1 year old but still very to the point);</p><p>(2) Refuse customers using known malicious IP-addresses and/or registrars;</p><p>(3) Treat complaints seriously - and listen to those who know, such as Mandiant (as can be seen in for example <a href="https://www.virustotal.com/gui/ip-address/188.114.96.0/relations" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://www.</span><span class="ellipsis">virustotal.com/gui/ip-address/</span><span class="invisible">188.114.96.0/relations</span></a>: tap ••• a couple of times until you see Mandiant in the third column);</p><p>(4) Always first show a warning page (shown before proceeding to actual site) for new customers, and more often show such a page after receiving complaints and/or when in doubt regarding the customer's intentions.</p><p>Cloudflare is complicit to cybercrime if they continue to facilitate it for their own profit -
