I don't think the "the proper solution" is possible in 2023, and it's not a matter of the size of the money pile.

Google and Facebook were examples of "the proper solutions".

The former is currently inaccessible from China, the latter from Russia.

Their "abuse prevention techniques" have failed.

Sacrificing only Cloudflare DNS users is a much lesser evil compared to outcome of "the proper solutions".
