It's easier to account for the quantity of malicious use of Tor towards non-hidden internet websites > Based on data across the CloudFlare network, 94% of requests that we see across the Tor network are per se malicious. https://blog.cloudflare.com/the-trouble-with-tor/ |

I'm skeptical about their metrics. If I try to access a cloudfare protected site and never manage to finish the infinite captcha look or just change my mind after seeing the captcha, do they consider it a successful block? Even if we think they have some magic way of actually knowing whether all requests are malicious or not:
> That doesn’t mean they are visiting controversial content, but instead that they are automated requests designed to harm our customers. A large percentage of the comment spam, vulnerability scanning, ad click fraud, content scraping, and login scanning comes via the Tor network.
Personally I don't think content scraping and vulnerability scanning are "malicious per se", by that metric even Google (and every other search engine) would be malicious.
