Ah yes, [email protected], my favorite Salty user. What is the actual goal of Cloudflare MITMing everyone to censor websites? If the owner of a website chooses to publish an email address, why can't he? If it gets scraped by bots and the inbox gets ruined forever, that's on him. Is it just to get people used to this sort of "voluntary" MITM attack? I put "voluntary" in quotes because I, the victim of this MITM attack, didn't volunteer, the owner of the website did.
@mckinley

cloudflare has been an interesting service to say the least. in the beginning they were neutral but in recent years seemed to have fallen into censorship situations.

this reminds me of the adage, he with the most toys wins

cloudflare has a metric tonne of toys.
Actually @mckinley You raise a good point, I'm going to go turn that feature off on my Cloudflare service that sits in front of twtxt.net -- You are 100% right. And not only that, the nick@domain (Slaty Id) and @user@domain forms are _not_ necessarily Email addresses anyway at this point -- not in the context of Yarn.social and Salty.im 😂

@mutefall I don't think a lot of people realize just how much power Cloudflare has over the Web. Even we probably can't imagine the extent of it. @prologic, thank you for turning that off. It was even [email protecting][email protecting][email protecting][email protecting][email protecting][email protecting][email protecting][email protecting] version numbers at the bottom of the page.

I'm still seeing [email protected][email protected=][email protected][email protected=][email protected][email protected=][email protected][email protected=] on docs.mills.io, it's making it confusing to read the Salty specification.

@mckinley Oh oops. I'll turn that off on my personal domain too 👌

I'm having a hard time understanding this. If I wanted to create the account mckinley@mckinley.cc, would I have to run an instance of the broker *on* mckinley.cc or could I use any broker server? If the latter is true, it's a little misleading to say I'm mckinley *at* mckinley.cc.
@mckinley you're right, they don't. they steer traffic for a the majority of the internet. this is not how we got started on the internet and still makes us dependent on certain services and endpoints to join themodern internet

i used bind out in the wild for my infrastructure, cloudflare is a polr point of last resort in case my network(s) start chewing concrete
@mckinley it's one thing for cloudflare to be a proxy-mitm (which is how it works, and most people complain but yet lack the understanding of reverse proxy and tls termination) and a whole other thing for them to be absently censoring or using dark-pattern ui to hide features they think are useful.
