Upvote, if you suspect the sudden cloudflare-ups and recent appearance of new active accounts indicates a new push for censorship/narrative control. Possible sign of a black swan event? Any thoughts?

Seems a flaw was introduced to the system.

Are you aware of other platforms that are seeing similar issues?

They could just cancel/replace the free keys, and reissue new ones with ddos limitations.

Seems like an easy solution.

Their whole design of their key system is flawed, which allows any Cloudflare keys to bypass protection on Cloudlfare protected websites. They may have stopped issuing free keys to limit news of this.

Seems like a dubious vulnerability.
