Maybe they booted you because your business model is to use Cloudflare to repeatedly and aggressively scrape data from cryptocurrency exchanges and then resell it for hundreds of dollars a month.

Sounds like an abuse of their terms of service to me.



Cloudflare is not used at all for data collection (it's not scraping, it's using official exchanges APIs), only for the APIs that serve historical data.


Aren't all users or CloudFlare doing [ACTIVITY] to resell something for profit?

What planet are you on?


Is that illegal or something?


It doesn't have to be illegal to be against the terms of service. Cloudflare can decide how they wish their service to be used.


Is there a clause in the terms of service against it then?
