Comment on Supporting the future of the open web: Cloudflare is sponsoring Ladybird and Omarchy

It’s literally not limited. If you don’t put a WAF rule based on the score then it doesn’t get blocked based on the score. It’s that easy. I’ve got clients and my own site on Cloudflare, so I know how it works. You don’t even need the pro subscription to do that.

You control the score but not how its calculated. My score is incredibly high just because I’m on Linux with Firefox - how important is that to you as an e-commerse site admin?

  I said that in my original comment:
  
  just not over the calculation itself
  
  If you don’t use the score, it’s not a factor. I don’t use the score at all for my clients. You are not required to use it.

    Not sure what does have to do with the fact that cf providers no metrics of false positives but sure.

    I’m not sure why you’re trying to bring that up when this comment of yours is what I’ve been responding to the entire time:
    
    Nope. Cloudflare use a complex set of fingerprinting tools that determine security scores. It’s literally social credit system for web user agents and the site admits have little control over that.
    
    Cloudflare does force nor opt in site admins to use the score. You said that site admins have little control over that. That is not true, because site admins do not have to use the score when configuring WAF. If they do not configure blocking based on score, they do not block the scored traffic at any point, no matter the score.
