Oh, yeah, and if you block cloudflare.com third party JS and whatnot, guess what? that doesn't work! it just displays a vaguely patronizing error message.

(It used to just say "unblock challenges.cloudflare.com to proceed" which was significantly less offensive, IMO. Treated you like a person who knows what you're doing, which you are if you've decided to manually block cloudflare.com, and tells you what the exact domain at issue is if you feel like giving in.)

Could be, could be not. I honestly don't remember what that style comes from. Got a screenshot of the entire error page? Maybe there's additional info on it somewhere.

(If this is the entire page... try zooming out? Looks like they might have borked their page design slightly.)

That's it. Btw it's from archive.is. I tried following a link from an article given by a lemmy.ml comrade.

Okay, that looks like not-Cloudflare. In large part because of the captcha; Cloudflare doesn't use Google's, they have their own.

I wonder if this is somehow from Google. Which... would they then be triggering this from third party JS or something? I don't know.
