Walt Wooton<p>I think I just discovered a fairly large phishing network using <a href="https://spartanburg.social/tags/Cloudflare" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Cloudflare</span></a> as the registrar.

AdGuard<p>🌐 What are Google and Cloudflare DNS servers — and how are they different from AdGuard DNS?</p><p>Google DNS and Cloudflare DNS are public DNS servers you can use instead of the default ones provided by your ISP.
