@grishka not really, any such service will provide you an option to geoblock. This is usually for situations like when your site that is never visited by Chinese users suddenly gets a DDoS attack with majority of the attackers coming from China, there's just no loss of value by geoblocking in this case. The problem is just that it's often misused as a measure to block unwanted countries, but making it difficult to use is not a solution as it simply hinders the legit use cases... @ErikUden every time I see one of these or get discriminated in other ways, this song starts playing in my head @ErikUden There's also this absolute masterpiece of a parody. "I'm Russian" (я русский) and "I'm narrow" (я узкий) sound similar. @grishka Ahahahah, I fully understood it was a joke. Thanks for the clarification anyway! I love the parody @grishka hell yeah, I can feel the war ending any second, now that russia cannot install any plugins in jetbrains IDEs. hear the rumble? that's russian military complex crushing from this change 💯 (/s obvs) @grishka this is the least unexpected block since there's a Ukrainian name |
@grishka russian_internet_experience.jpg ? Geoblocking is the worst, Cloudflare or not.
