Are the last two the same image but mirrored?

Here’s a copy without the reddit banner at the bottom

I’d say it’s more of a Bwaahh

I’m going to pretend using an enshitified version of this meme template was an intentional choice

That’s not my thing, but just make sure you practice safe sex.

Yeah, it really depends on if you know how to do it right. Generally, if you’ve worked in F&B before, then you should know.

Since you’re going to childishly talk about me and infer something that is entirely false, I’m going to step in here.

First, you claim it’s “a convenient shorthand”, except “middleman” is far shorter than “man-in-the-middle”. So that argument is entirely false.

Next, “nothing that I wrote misrepresents the situation”? You literally linked the Wikipedia article for “Man in the middle attack”, but conveniently left out the word “attack” both when referring to it and in the link itself which redirected to the actual Wiki page https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Man-in-the-middle_attack.

You are clearly intentionally misrepresenting the subject in order to frame things to suit your narrative. That’s not just a claim out of nowhere, I provided evidence to support this.

And get out of here with your pathetic “like most of my colleagues” pretentious attitude.

I mean, that was meant to be an obvious oversimplification.

You think civilians with guns are going to thwart an army?

Sure, if they are coming after you directly and you’ve got nothing else to lose, it would make sense to make a stand.

But if you preemptively show that you are a threat then you will be bringing that upon yourself, and possibly others, needlessly. We have seen this before, as another user pointed out, with Waco and Ruby Ridge.

Do not make yourself a target and a danger when the threat against you is just shitty laws that benefit the wealthy.

omg that bar that kicked me out for being a belligerent asshole has stopped being a bar and now they’ve become the police. They have too much power!

Oookay. I wasn’t actually claiming you were talking out of your ass. I was explaining that without backing up your claims with information, then that would be the conclusion.

Since you are refusing to do so, and since you seemed to identify with that, along with clearly conflating the two terms to suit your narrative. I can now say it’s safe to assume that you are talking out of your ass. Especially considering the first part of your response reeks of arrogance.

You’re conflating MitM, which is specifically defined as an attack, with the concept of a middleman. You acknowledge that it’s not an attack, even:

It just means it’s not a man-in-the-middle attack.

The other things you’re describing are also framed specifically in a way that makes Cloudflare seem like some sort of bad actor out of the norm.

You say users have no choice in using Cloudflare. Yeah, the party that runs the service/website/whatever decides what services they use to serve their content. Nothing special there. If you are against Amazon then users have no choice but to use them when the other side chooses to use their services, or any other service provider which includes the ones you like. Similarly, users would have to resolve DNS records to determine what services they are connecting to.

You also don’t have to use Cloudflare’s proxy. You can just use them for DNS record management. You can use different SSL settings that allow an unencrypted connection between Cloudflare and the server, or you can enforce strict SSL policies where it is encrypted end-to-end.

You’re going to have to prove any of your claims, or else I am just going to assume you’re talking out of your ass. Particularly because you’re clearly misunderstanding what a MitM is, or you’re intentionally misusing it.
