Tell HN: Cloudflare's abuse report form is a blank page

https://abuse.cloudflare.com/ https://web.archive.org/web/20261112125921/https://abuse.cloudflare.com/

When you want to report abuse to Cloudflare they tell you here to use a form that is actually just a completely blank page: https://www.cloudflare.com/trust-hub/reporting-abuse/

It is not blank for me. Each category brings up a structured form.

I got it to load exactly once now. Every other time the page is just completely blank. It does give a 200 status code however.

Edit: I can get it to load a category selector randomly on some requests. But once I select a category I am thrown back to a blank page.

The blog post mentioning this is how I stumbled over this. Cloudflare hosting lots of very clear abuse and not handling reports timely is nothing new, but just deleting the report form altogether is new.

You misread that blog.. the form isn't blank.

> Click "Submit an abuse report" and it'll take you to a completely blank page.

A blank submit-result page isn't indicative it isn't working either, although it's not a great UX (if true). Also note the footnotes show Robin has JS turned off breaking other simple sites, which could also be the cause.

> It's hosted with Cloudflare, and the abuse reporting form they insist you use straight-up doesn't work. Click "Submit an abuse report" and it'll take you to a completely blank page. Very encouraging.

That is exactly my result as well.

Edit: Unless I'm tripping you edited your comment after my reply. This is not about the result page. The form page itself is completely blank and I have JS on.
