For the record, as a regular Tor user, I do not have the same reverence
to Cloudflare's customer service.  Although they keep defending the
thesis that "website owners" must select an emergency defense mode to
actually block Tor traffic, as more websites use Cloudflare services,
they become unusable without a proprietary javascript-powered CAPTCHA.

Given their jurisdiction, and the current war on cryptography, the
potential for abusive breaches of privacy with this system are
non-negligible.  Adding to that the power to update the authoritative
name servers for a domain, and you have a perfect Internet for Police
State.  And until now, without any IETF-approved alternative.
