 And I, as the user, didn't want Cloudflare to read my data.
 I agree to the terms and conditions of CLOUDFLARED.COM but I didn't agree
 to CLOUDFLARE.
 Read Firfox Focus Github issue. The "user" must have a right to decide
 access or not access to the website. Not you.

 > Do you say that tbb should block sites because their internal setup is
 insecure (and yes, cloudflare ''is'' part of that 'internal setup')?
 >

 At least raise a warning that the website is proxied by the company like
 Cloudflare.
 This is a MITM. If you disagree, read Wikipedia.

 > Should tbb also block sites that run on rented cloud machinery, because
 they areinherently insecure, and subvertible by the hosting companies?
 >

 Are you nuts? Read Wikipedia before you write anything.

 > Should tbb also block google-analytics, for obvious reasons?

 What the fuck? You are clearly misleading.
