Complains about TLS inspection, yet fronts their website on the biggest and most widely deployed TLS introspection middle box in the world ...

Why do we all disdain local TLS inspection software yet half the Internet terminates their TLS connection at Cloudflare who are most likely giving direct access to US Intelligence?

It's so much worse as it's infringing on the privacy and security of billions of innocent people whilst inspection software only hurts some annoying enterprise folks.

I wish we all hopped off the Cloudflare bandwagon.

The author is not complaining about reverse proxies, which would be a very silly position to take.
