Hi Brandon,

I think it would be helpful to clarify a few things:

1. You fancy yourself as a competitor to CloudFlare, so your comments
here can hardly be considered as impartial.

2. "CF often gets blocked by well... Pretty much everything because it
is used
by Pirates and Porn sites, and quite often you will share IP's with
those. "
Not true at all. We actually have our IPs whitelisted at a number of
places. We also wouldn't have established relationships with a large
number of hosting providers if that were the case.

"Plus CloudFlare will throw Captcha's to Google Bot and that will
cause your
site to get de-ranked if not de-listed."
This infrequently happens when Google adds new IPs that they do their
crawls from. Fixed very quickly once we add the new IPs to our Macro &
we do a lot internally to identify search engine traffic so that the
chances of a search engine actually getting challenged is very slim.
