It's a bit like saying "having a password on your account is fearmongering, why would anyone try to access your data".
It's only fearmongering until you get attacked, and it's already too late when you do. Better to be proactive.
@Alaknar@sopuli.xyz @memes@lemmy.world Being proactive doesn't mean you have to hide your personal service behind a billion dollar company. That is precisely the kind of overreaction triggered by fearmongering. If you don't know how to secure access points or harden configurations, no service will be able to do it for you as if by magic. Not to mention your responsibility towards your users, who may not want to be tracked by a third-party company without their knowledge every time they visit your site (or half of the internet by now).
That's the point. Cloudflare does this as if by magic.
Cloudflare doesn't track your users.
As a sidenote - am I reading you correctly? Your main issue with Cloudflare is "they're large"? Like, if they were "two dudes in a basement" and provided the same quality product as they do now, you'd be happy to use their service?
