VPN users are hostile just not you. VPN is abused by bad actors all the time using a shared IP that you are likely using too. If you had a dedicated IP I'm sure this would be different though makes you less anonymous which is part of the reason why you get captchas.

It's still a false positive, which is what we're talking about, unless cloudflare itself is the bad actor and they're deliberately blocking normal VPN users. Which I'm sure there's money if you dig. Governments for one would happily pay to de-anonymize or block "misbehaving" citizens.
Same.
I get blocked on websites I have accounts on if I use a VPN. I'm not just a visitor, I'm a member, and still get blocked by cloudflare. Other times it's a small or local business and to me the website just looks down. Then, if I bother to think about and willing to drop my VPN, suddenly the website works fine.
Treating VPN users as hostile is getting really fuckin old.
