I'm on the free tier, but I also watch my logs. The vast majority of the traffic I'm getting are scrapers and vulnerability scanners, a lot of them coming through residential proxies and other "laundered" egress points.

I honestly don't think that Cloudflare is on top of the problem at all. They claim to be blocking abuse, but in my experience, most of the badness gets through.

You can’t deny that it’s fun though. Personally I generally feel like more people should be coming up with creative (if not entirely necessary) solutions to problems.

For “free”.

It is really free? Genuinely asking.
