I don’t mind talking about it, we do it for load balancing the traffic and DDoS 
protection, which, as you can imagine, being an AV company, happens.

But when you say “cloudflare is enabled”  what does that mean?

Right.  Would those who made that decision blog a few lines telling something
more than such statement, please?

That blog would be for users who disable some javascript, and may be confused
by https://noscript.net/about/cloudflare.com;cloudflare.com and similar links
quoted below.

We are working on the submission process as we speak to make this simpler.

Since you're at it, uploading a sample doesn't seem to work unless
cloudflare.com<http://cloudflare.com><http://cloudflare.com> is enabled.

I'd rather keep it disabled, since someone on WoT reported it can anonymize bad
sites, confirmed by some more referenced material on wikipedia:
https://www.mywot.com/en/scorecard/cloudflare.com
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CloudFlare#Controversies

Otherwise, if you have strong reasons to believe cloudflare is good and people
should enable their scripts, please endorse them explicitly.  At this time
Google say:

 Your search - "cloudflare" site:clamav.net - did not match any documents.

I feel like a broken record saying this, but the submission process has
changed a lot recently and we’re working on it

Thank you so much for that!

Keep up the good work
Ale
