They get shit on a lot here. Why? What do they do and how is that different from other companies that offer similar services?

What I know of them: they offer DDS brute force/spam protection for websites.

    Right?? To let your website be susceptible to that kind of act by anyone means that you probably didn’t really care about security in the first place, so much as just getting the magic lock icon happy.

      Magic lock icon is easy, hard is it to block attacks and being able to do very little about it.
      Spoofed packets, server providers not caring what their customers do, many abuse email adresses dont even work.
      Keyless SSL would be nice and i’d use it. I have my own keys, but its for Enterprise customers only.

      I am not using Cloudflare as i dont like them handling like 80% of all traffic. But as website owner i can understand why someone would still choose them…
