funny but it's not

I just installed the Cloud Firewall extension for Firefox. It lets you block anything that's coming from Amazon, Apple, Google, Facebook, Microsoft, or Cloudflare.

...It broke like half my bookmarks, haha. Including a couple things I didn't expect to be hosted on Cloudflare.

I have alternative browsers for things I really need, like my bank's website (Cloudflare!). But I'm going to try to find alternatives for the non-essential broken stuff as much as possible.

Love this experiment. Cloudflare is a straight up evil group of humans.

Fun fact: I don't even know why Cloudflare is so hated. I just know (a) they are and (b) I am sick of them butting in every time I want to open a website just to make me do some free labor training an AI (aka "proving I am not a bot").

If my passwords are good enough everyone else they should be good enough for you, Cloudflare. GO AWAY.
