I'd bet most websites are just using Cloudflare as a CDN, unless they're
actually running on Workers or Pages.

The standard technique that Cloudflare will use is to stop the cache and
disclose the origin IP.

Is it correct to assume that the website you have concerns about is not
hosted by Cloudflare, but behind them? ( CDN / security )

I have an ongoing abuse complaint that's not getting any traction and I'd
like to see if I can't get some help with it.

I happen to publish a web serial and a site has been scraping me for 2
months and I've been filing DMCAs for 2 months.  I've filed multiple DMCA
requests.  Other than the autoresponder there's been silence.

The site has no monetization options.  No ads, nothing to buy.  It's only
source of funding seems to be the vast XML that it publishes which means
its likely harvesting everything for AI training data as an "arms lenght
aggregator".  The site in question has an EXTENSIVE history on Lumen.

I filed another DMCA yesterday and didn't even get the autoresponder this
time.  What's going on at CloudFlare?
