Kind of reminds me of that time CF bait and switched that gambling website. Everyone was wondering who they find more predatory and distasteful.

iirc it came out that the gambling site was intentionally cycling through cloudflare’s IP range to avoid IP blocking, causing legitimate websites to be flagged as unsafe. They said they’d still host them, they just need their own IP and not one of cloudflare’s. Horribly communicated to the customer though

That makes more sense now.
