I mean, I've had abuse complaints before that were handled much better. I thought they would take down the Cloudflare Pages project, not literally ban our root url

Chaika•6/25/24, 4:37 PM

ooh it's a pages project? I was confused when you said

I thought Cloudflare let the hosting provider be the judge, but apparently not.

If it's a Pages Project, CF is the Hosting Provider and legally has to take certain actions (and they describe such in their abuse approach): https://www.cloudflare.com/trust-hub/abuse-approach/

horrorOP•6/25/24, 4:37 PM

Yeah yeah, but why would they BAN our domain?

horrorOP•6/25/24, 4:37 PM

and not take down the pages project

Chaika•6/25/24, 4:38 PM

The pages project was on your apex/root url, right?

horrorOP•6/25/24, 4:38 PM

yeah

horrorOP•6/25/24, 4:39 PM

but only that was banned, like everything else was working, so you could still access different parts of it if you just typed in something in the url

horrorOP•6/25/24, 4:39 PM

which makes me think this wasn't handled completely according to Cloudflare's standards

horrorOP•6/25/24, 4:39 PM

cause it seemed rushed or automated.

horrorOP•6/25/24, 4:40 PM

anyways, I guess I'll have to wait. Just not a nice experience.

horrorOP•6/25/24, 4:40 PM

but that also made me unable to simply change hosting provider, because the URL would continue to be blocked

Chaika•6/25/24, 4:41 PM

why would it be in CF's interests to allow you to do that/evade that way? Doing that kind of thing would likely backfire/people would find a way to abuse it

horrorOP•6/25/24, 4:41 PM

If they're not willing to host my content, I should be allowed to switch hosting provider, don't you think?

Erisa•6/25/24, 4:41 PM

I suspect you would have been able to change hosting provider if you had set a DNS-only record

Chaika•6/25/24, 4:44 PM

Regardless there's nothing anyone in here can do about it, no one from T&S or anything like that, they're in their own black box/department. Most we can do is try to help explain their actions and your options
(in case it's worth highlighting as well, green names are just volunteers/I'm not an employee)

Erisa•6/25/24, 4:45 PM

Also you would find that Cloudflare's terms allow them to restrict or remove anyones service for any reason they deem necessary - provided the domain is not registered at Cloudflare (from context i assume not), you have full portability and can change those nameservers to wherever you want to host without Cloudflare even if the zone is removed and banned.

Plinpod•6/25/24, 9:21 PM

Hey everyone! Had a question. Is there a way to run a process in Cloudflare parallel with a request.

For if a URL gets requested someURL.comsomeURL.com I'd like it to execute as normal but then at the time of the request I'd like to run a background process.

Basically run a worker which doesn't manipulate or delay the incoming request. Hope that make sense. Thanks!

Erisa•6/25/24, 9:26 PM

You want ctx.waitUntil()ctx.waitUntil(): https://developers.cloudflare.com/workers/runtime-apis/context/#waituntil

EErisa You want `ctx.waitUntil()`: <https://developers.cloudflare.com/workers/runtime-a...

Plinpod•6/25/24, 9:31 PM

oh ok gotcha, so still use a worker, instantly send back the response and setup a waitUntil for all the background stuff

Erisa•6/25/24, 9:32 PM

Yes

Erisa•6/25/24, 9:32 PM

Make sure you run the waitUntil before you return the response, the function you pass will keep running even after the response is done

Plinpod•6/25/24, 9:33 PM

awesome, I'll play around with it. Thanks!

Erisa•6/25/24, 9:47 PM

you can ask it here

Chaika•6/25/24, 9:47 PM

you could try asking it in here or #general-help or could just wait it out, it'll be unlocked in a bit when people calm down

When CloudFlare becomes the DDOS of discord.

CosmosisT•6/25/24, 9:52 PM

I love it, you guys have fun tonight.

Ppeshakoo what if its r2 piped through a worker?

Chaika•6/25/24, 9:52 PM

On r2 means CF is hosting it, so the hosted content stuff follows: https://www.cloudflare.com/trust-hub/reporting-abuse/

Erisa•6/25/24, 10:27 PM

This varies by the rules of the TLD, there isn't really anything you can do

Erisa•6/25/24, 10:28 PM

Cloudflare redacts everything it can but if the TLD says that something cant be redacted then well it cant redact it

Erisa•6/25/24, 10:29 PM

if the field is still optional you can try just removing it and making it tied to your personal identity instead, but unsure what legal consequences that might hold for your org

CosmosisT•6/25/24, 10:29 PM

Yup, if you want a CA domain you have to identify yourself.

CosmosisT•6/25/24, 10:29 PM

Fun how that works but safe.

Erisa•6/25/24, 10:30 PM

Its always the TLD... lol

XxSkeletor is there a way to see what information a tld can redact?

Erisa•6/25/24, 10:31 PM

Hmm I never found a good reference for that
