-### Unwanted spam emails
+### CloudFlare spams people
Cloudflare is sending spam emails to non-Cloudflare users.
- Only send emails to subscribers who’ve opted in
- When the user say "stop", then stop sending email
-It's that simple. But Cloudflare don't care.
+It's that simple. But Cloudflare doesn't care.
Cloudflare said using their service [can stop all spammers or attackers](https://support.cloudflare.com/hc/en-us/articles/200170066-Will-activating-Cloudflare-stop-all-spammers-or-attackers-).
How can we stop _Cloudflare spammers_ without activating Cloudflare?

-CloudFlare is asking for [charitable contributions](https://web.archive.org/web/20191112033605/https://opencollective.com/cloudflarecollective#section-about).

+### Browser vendor discrimination
+
+CloudFlare gives preferential treatment to those using Firefox while
+giving hostile treatment to users of non-Mozilla-based browsers over
+Tor. Tor users of who (rightfully) refuse to execute non-free
+javascript also receive hostile treatment. This access inequality is
+a network neutrality abuse and an abuse of power.
+
+| ***browser*** | ***access treatment*** |

+### Voter suppression
+
+Voters in US states register to vote ultimately through the state
+secretary's website in the state of their residence.
+Republican-controlled state secretary offices engage in voter
+suppression by proxying the state secretary's website through
+CloudFlare. CloudFlare's hostile treatment of Tor users, its MitM
+position as a centralized global point of surveillance, and its
+detrimental role overall makes prospective voters reluctant to
+register. Liberals in particular tend to embrace privacy. Voter
+registration forms collect sensitive information about a voter's
+political leaning, personal physical address, social security number,
+and date of birth. Most states only make a subset of that information
+publicly available, but CloudFlare sees ***all*** that information
+when someone registers to vote.
+
+Note that paper registration does not circumvent CloudFlare because
+the secretary of state data entry staff workers will likely use the
+CloudFlare website to enter the data.
