zScaler is a load of shit, especially with some of its absolutely dumb policies like “malicious TLDs”.

Because the Framework laptop site at frame.work is malicious, of course.

God, I love CURLing crap from my workstation and not getting the files I needed but instead a bunch of mangled HTML telling me zScaler was going to scan what I was going to download.

Bonus points that it puts me in the wrong country because I’m closer to Montreal than any American locations so half the time I’m stuck in French Canadian on the web from my New York office.

Triple bonus points that I’m required to test speed at client sites and zScaler completely mangles our presentable results.

Quadruple bonus points that I put in "because I feel like it" into every elevation request I make on my corporate machine and our "cyber team" has literally never looked at elevation reports to ask what the hell I'm doing...
