I am pretty sure that 99% of sites would have less downtime due to DDoS attacks than from such outages. I have so many issues with Cloudflare that I don’t even know where to begin with, from over-caching causing issues up to decrypting all traffic, who the hell thinks this is really a good idea?
On the one hand, I 110% agree with you
On the other hand, it’s so damn convenient. They cache your shit and they protect you from DDoS attacks, and they do it for free*
*Until you’re big enough to warrant extortion from them.
