@TicklishHoneyBee the gender-neutral term is #RentSeeker!

@Linux #ClownFlare is literally a #ValueRemoving #RentSeeker that #MITM's traffic to capture #Logins in #PlainText & also acts as #RogueISP hosting everything from #CSAM to #Cybercrime and #Terrorism.
@Viss #CloudFlare is a #RogueISP known to offer Services in #Russia and to #CyberCriminals...
#ClownFlare is also a #ValueRemoving #rentseeker who's core product / service is essentially a #Racketeering Scheme and should not exist as any competent hoster offers #DDoS protection free of charge...
@jana I find #ClownFlare to be garbage and have been happy with #ClouDNS for ages, which also has a nice #API...

#CloudFlare is a #RogueISP without a #Spine and a #ValueRemoving #RentSeeker...
@bojkotiMalbona @AAKL the problem with #CloudFlare is that their "#BusinessModel" which is being a #ValueRemoving #RentSeeker - should be as illegal as the #RacketeeringScheme it is if done in #meatspace...
@claasgefroi Ja...
Wegen solcher #Antisozialen #Schmarotzer und #RentSeeker sollten alle #Einkommen dieselben #Regeln und #Abgaben unterworfen sein wie #Lohnarbeit!
@xerz the problem isn't @torproject or #TorBrowser but asshole #Hosters, #ValueRemoving #Rentseeker|s like #ClownFlare and #Enshittification.
@technicat thanks for reminding me to never ever sign up with any #Publisher aka. #ValueRemoving #RentSeeker!
@baldur I'd not trust #ClownFlare at all because they are not only a #ValueRemoving - #Rentseeker seeling a #RacketeeringScheme (their entire business model should not exist to begin with!) and besides that they utterly #fail at #DDoS & #scaper- / #crawler protection at all...
For everything re: #Cloudflare being bad, Liz Fong-Jones already made a lenghtly playlist:

@reticuleena Merke: #ValueRemoving #Rentseeker wie die #GAFAM und #CDN-#Hoster wollen ja genau das...
Und die haben halt das Geld für Lobbyismus.
#PS: #BitTorrent und #IPFS leben und sind größer denn je!
