Cloudflare On The Browser

Raven

@administrators I noticed this has been an upcoming issue for users trying to browse the Internet. Cloudflares invasive system is starting to flag users on the DNS as bot causing them to not be able to browse any websites using Cloudflares browser checks.

Considering Cloudflare is a very huge platform, i doubt they would edit anything out for our community. The best bet would be to somehow mask the browser with Chrome or an up-to-date resource. For now, Switch Users will get an error every time the try to preform the Verification Checks. It is laggy and the screen freezes sometimes on both Switch Systems.

Cloudflare is a high-tech security system. It is nearly impossible for Switch Users to work around their Invasive System without changing what the Browser Information says. I found a couple Articles on google, that could help and resolve the issue.

You can view the issue yourself by trying to browse community.cloudflare.com on the Switch. Click the Checkbox on the Verification Process.

I've spoke to several website owners using Cloudflare and they've stated everytime we try to complete the check it simply flags us as a bot on the Admin Dashboard side.

something like browserling.

We could make another petition to change it back the way they had it considering this is effecting a ton of people.

I would like to fix this, although Switch traffic really does look like a botnet. (Same user agent, no cursor events, same screen sizes, all different IPs).

Of course though there's still ways that Cloudflare should and could get around this.

Another petition is a good idea. Also, if there are sites that have this issue, please contact the owners of them, so they are aware of the problem.

I agree, it is possible for website owners to whitelist/remove you from the Cloudflare Verification Checks with your IPs. So you could try to Email or Contact the website owner and if they know how to do so, it is a chance they could do that for you.

I find it strange Cloudflare has not done that yet..

Okay @VGMoose i spoke with some experts, they said add the cookie tc_utk and switch users should be able to browse websites and stuff.
