Meanwhile high profile data breeches, usually with a human-based root cause, aren’t uncommon these days.

I’m not implying Cloudflare will someday be breeched, but it’s a non-zero possibility, and thanks to their position as an SSL-decrypting and re-encrypting intermediary, would be totally transparent to origins and end users.

That said, I use Cloudflare for sites I host. It’s just an interesting philosophical discussion point.
