Maybe I’m a bit out of the loop on Cloudflare’s activity these days, but I’m not sure I understand your statement.

Cloudflare thinks your browser is part of a DDoS?

Cloudflare is attacking your browser from several places across the internet?



My guess is that this refers to the CPU challenge. Presumably DDoS here should be DoS, specifically overwhelming their CPU or draining their battery.

On my phone, it locks up my browser with it’s “check” so I have to restart it.

I understand it isn’t related to DDOS but used it as a joke since it is basically attacking my browser
