Cloudflare: Incorrect proxying of 24 hostnames on January 24, 2022 (cloudflare.com)

A blocked hostname is one that can’t be activated without manual approval by our Trust & Safety team. Some scenarios that could lead to a hostname being blocked include when the hostname is a Cloudflare-owned property, a well known brand, or a hostname in need of additional review for a variety of reasons. During this incident, a very small number of blocked hostnames were erroneously moved to the active state while migrating clickfunnels.com’s customers.

Curious about the "variety of reasons" for those hostnames.


This wasn't malicious, but I find it incredibly funny how the requests ended up at `clickfunnels.com` Turns out they're too good at their job.


I’m sort of surprised they have a circular dependency on them self
