I recently stumbled across Cludflares trustpilot page and the reviews were completely mismatched from the way I have experienced people talk about them on forums. The reviews on trustpilot make them sound awful, but I have only seen recommendations for them on forums, often people say they are the best DNS provider.

Whats up with that? Does anyone know why there is such a disparity.

I think it's a little ridiculous though that Cloudflare can't do any sort of geo-restriction instead.

That's not their job, it's the job of the site operator.

It's a free-tier service ffs. Who runs a company on a free-tier?

It is their job. They advertise it as bot blocking
