The Airtel story is interesting. I've experience this in India, but it's usually just DNS level blocks. Didn't expect it to manifest as an HTTPS MITM. That's a massive fail on Cloudflare's part.

That was entirely The Pirate Bay's fault, not CloudFlare's.

I mean it's deceptive to the general public to even call it flexible SSL and offer it as a product. False sense of security is worse than no security.
