It's simple, really. Cloudflare is the single root cause of the issue. All the others are not a huge issue until Cloudflare notices. It's perfectly rational and reasonable to blame the company trying to gatekeep the whole internet, without taking any responsibility for false positives.

Scaling to infinity isn't a right, it is a privilege. Any company that builds this sort of no-human-decision systems are abusing that privilege and hoping that anyone who suffers wrongly under their systems doesn't have enough voice (google seems to be the worst for this, though cloudflare seems set to follow).
