POTENTIAL #SECURITY THREAT: The above website, #phanpyDotSocial is #CloudGlare and may be a #socialEngineering attack on #fediverse users to open them up to #accountTakeover.

If the above website asks one to login to ones #mastodon instance with their password then its a CloudGlare #phishing website/#honeypot.

We will not access on ethical grounds.

Tagging some boosters to warn them @njoseph @kkremitzki @michelin

Our namesake, #DickSmith has rallied heavily against #aggregatorSites for #travel, like #Trivago, #TripAdvisor and #AirBnB.

Now imagine ENTIRE INTERNET AGGREGATION!

Someone ought contact Dick and tell him about #CloudFlare, #Amazon and #Akamai.

Forget buying a little ad in a corner of a #newspaper. He might need to buy the entire newspaper for a week to cover this.

We doubt even he has the funds to do this.

@StartpageSearch
There are two caveats to the above to be mindful of.

1. Unfortunately CloudFlare is used by #Visa last we checked but Visa have a bespoke setup that negates the need for the aforementioned '#CFRay'.

2. Be mindful that the #UBlock addon fetches all its #blockLists from CloudFlare. May be reason for not blocking or warning of the #MITMAttack, and why BCMA #addon is neccessary.

Don't trust BCMA.xpi? — Convert the #XPI to a #ZIP file and read the code.

When describing the ongoing #MITMAttack on #theInternet by the likes of #Amazon, #Cloudflare, #Microsoft, and #Akamai which 'backronym' (back acronym) might you prefer?

• Mafia in the Middle
• Megacorporation in the Middle
• Monopolist in the Middle
• Monopoly in the Middle
• (something else…?)

Please justify any given answer.
