From the blog post someone else linked, it sounds like they do have this process but it's just a process it's not enforced by their control software. So someone has made a change without following the process, and they mention prioritising getting enforcement into their control panel or whatever.
The number of these that their researchers receive it would be impractical.
Ah another day, another Cloudflare cockup. It would be nice if the service that insists on MitM’ing a huge chunk of the internet could focus a bit more on stability.
That's why I am not rellying on them for my slefhosting needs
Personally I think they have a much better track record of not making dumb mistakes than I do...
I guess mel isn't going to use you for their self hosting needs either, then.
