I like the idea of a less profit-driven business that is maybe more community-focused but I wonder if they have the same capability as a bank? Have you been able to do your banking needs at a credit union? Was the customer service decent?

    thanks! I did not know about that one.

    Those mail services are a minefield in general. Most are compromised by Cloudflare. It’s crazy how companies handling inherently sensitive info like that are exposing their customers to Cloudflare.

      What do you usually suggest as an alternative to CF?

      I used to work for a bank and managed to convince management to use a local company for DDOS protection. That bypassed the NSL risk of a US company, but it still gave a third party mitm power.

      Best I’ve seen is some in-house interstitial PoW page, like “Heray” – a proprietary system used by hetzner. But I haven’t found any FOSS solutions that are well documented and fairly trivial to deploy.

        I’ve never been on the other side of that problem. And it’s not my problem, so I never looked too deeply into it. I just know if a bank or CU is using Cloudflare I am not using it.
