Ah, I see. Yeah, that one definitely took me multiple attempts to see what it wanted.
I believe that the "enemies":
1. Must start with "#"
2. Must be exactly 6 hex digits
3. Must be lowercase

As far as I can tell, the first combat level enemies all start with "ALERT-" and have exactly 3 digits.

I believe it is very much a two-way ban, depending on the specific chips [0].

Semi-related: Firefox 142 was released a few days ago and is now using CRLite[0], which apparently only needs ~300kB a day for for the revocation lists in their new clubcard data-structure[1].

In the context of snooping on the SNI extension, you definitely can.
The SNI extension is sent unencrypted as part of the ClientHello (first part of the TLS handshake). Any router along the way see the hostname that the client provides in the SNI data, and can/could drop the packet if they so choose.

In order to function, CDNs have to act essentially as giant opt-in MITM services. When you setup a CDN in front of your site, you will either need to give them your cert, or let them issue a cert (e.g. via let's encrypt).
If they can serve your site with https normally, they can serve any content they want under it.

I'm not sure why it would be different from any other hosting provider. They do clarify what they consider abuse / forbidden content, and their operational policies though:

At a prior job (fairly recently, past ~5 years), we still used ColdFusion MX7 for some internal apps and reports. They had been around for a long time, so don't break what works I suppose. :)
The biggest issue with them was that _some_ feature (cfform IIRC) was generating flash .swf input forms, which broke after the flash player EOL. Switching it directly to the plain html version wasn't compatible, so we had to manually fix a bunch of code.

Is there something in specific that makes this easier to use in Rust projects compared to the Lua wrappers/bindings like mlua[0]? Or is it just an overall ergonomics thing?
Genuine question, as I don't have any prior experience embedding any scripting language into a Rust project.

Haha, this made me chuckle :)
I'll concede on the joylessness front. However, I assure you that all the posts on my personal blog are 100% artisanal human-made joyless posts! No AI needed.

Yeah, I should probably update my Hugo theme to include the date (not that I ever write anything on there anyways TBH). Also, the I changed domains not too long ago, so that probably added some more confusion.
I wrote this in 2020 apparently:

There are multiple competitors though.
See: Azure Front Door, Amazon CloudFront, Google Cloud/Media CDN, Akamai, Fastly, BunnyCDN, and so on.
People are _choosing_ to use Cloudflare, whether that's based on cost, features, or even just brand recognition - but lack of options isn't the case.
