In case anyone was wondering, Weinberg is a pushover with no constitution. I once asked him why #DuckDuckGo doesn't filter out privacy-abusing #Cloudflare sites & it triggered him. He had no sound defense.. no good answer for it. It's clear that he simply does not have the guts to truly deliver a privacy-respecting search engine. He's fixated on serving normies who are privacy-naive.

@resist1984 Perhaps a Cloudflare MITM warning instead of filtering out the sites completely from search results? I think warnings about MITM for HTTPS is much more relevant than the common site cookie warnings.

@modrobert Studies show that a search result is *twice* as likely to be clicked on than the result immediately below it. So rank matters. A privacy respecting search engine does not give high ranks to Cloudflare sites.

@modrobert Consider what Ss does: it folds the #Cloudflare results at the bottom of the page. If the leading results are lacking, you can scroll to the bottom, unfold the CF sites & click the favicons to visit the archived mirrors of those sites.

@resist1984 That Onion URL must be broken, can't load it over Tor. Anyway, I guess that's one way to do it, still prefer a warning so the visitor knows HTTPS to this site is MITMed.

@otso @modrobert The onion URL works, but not for everyone. Tor Browser has no issues unless you've disabled #DoNotTrack. Other browsers will work, but you must enable DNT. If it still doesn't work, plz let me know and i'll make it known.

@resist1984 @otso I'm not using Tor browsers, using Chromium over Tor daemon. There is a '.' in the URL, that looks wrong to me, and it doesn't load.

@resist1984 @otso sercxi.nnpaefp7pkadbxxkhz2agtbv2a4g5sgo2fbmv3i7czaua354334uqqad.onion

Specifically the first '.' after 'sercxi' there looks wrong, hidden services Onion URL is a key plus the ".onion" part, and that key will fail.

@modrobert @otso the hostname "sercxi." is essential. If I omit the hostname, it fails even in Tor Browser. If you prefer, you can visit onion.sercxi.eu.org/ from Tor and it will redirect to the onion site. There is also sercxi.eu.org/, which works exclusively over clearnet.
