I don’t like cloudflare but it’s nice that they allow people to stop AI scrapping if they want to

CloudFlare has become an Internet protection racket and I’m not happy about it.

It’s been this from the very beginning. But they don’t fit the definition of a protection racket as they’re not the ones attacking you if you don’t pay up. So they’re more like a security company that has no competitors due to the needed investment to operate.
