Maybe the right people are hearing, but they consider it a necessary evil of negligible impact (accurately or inaccurately). Or is stuck with Cloudflare, who says they'll take care of it. Or maybe the message is getting lost before it gets to someone who cares.
Could you send me an email with details you have available, (rayID, IP address + website, or HAR file) at amartinetti at cloudflare.com?
Edit: even if you just mean whitelisting their proxy ip... that doesn't do much good either. It's like asking to whitelist tor - those IPs are blocked because a good amount of spam or malicious traffic originates from them, not because there are x0,000 users on each.

Mini is a barely configurable hosted browser with one IP, one location, and one fingerprint. It doesn't return anywhere near full HTML/JS/CSS, but highly cut-down code generated by Opera's server. Unless somebody has found a way to hack that server, I'm at a loss as to what damage it could cause.
This seems to me a case of sloppy use of overly broad security tools.
I have to assume jgrahamc was one of the flaggers, given their indignant comment at the top of this thread.
