Trouble servers with cloudflare

Recommended Posts

Hey guys I did not see this in the forum when I used the search but I think it could be usefull, as more and more webpages switch to Cludflare (at least it seems that way :-) )

 

My Idea is to collect the Servers where you need to fill out Captchas and which are not in that list. If people who need often access to webpages protected by cloudflare are looking for airvpn nodes they can just pick one from the list. If you have any information concerning servers that do work and servers which do not work share them and I will edit the first post so that people can stop try and error :-D

 

List as of 29.09.2016

 

Blocked (Captchas are needed to be filled out)

 

Tauri (Germany)

 

 

No Captchas

 

Kitalpha (Switzerland)

Virginis (Switzerland)

Need to enter a captcha can not be considered a block, so this forum is not suitable for your topic. We will move it to "General & Suggestions".

 

Kind regards

This cannot be fixed by the AirVPN team. Sometimes, a server that you are connected to is listed on some blocklist(s) and/or has a significant amount of users connecting to websites secured with CloudFare. CloudFare see's this as a possible threat (I.E DDoS attack/spam) even though it is legitimate traffic. This is also likely to occur if someone is running a Tor exit node.

I am fully aware that it cannot be fixed by AirVPN and I love this service so I thought keeping such a list will at least ease the pain of filling out captchas every single time for people who want to use a server without cloudflare giving you captchas all the time.

That would be awesome! As long as you can keep the list updated semi-regularly I predict some users would be appreciative of this.

I remember a similar topic on providing a list on TOR exit servers. Can't find the relevant topic now, there was an answer to such things by Staff, I think it was something along the lines of this: AirVPN offers neutral servers and marking single servers because they're TOR exit nodes or blocked by certain websites is discriminatory, therefore against their interests.

While I agree with you, as you make a valid point... I think the user is just trying to help. Also, you can see (https://airvpn.org/tor/) says to not use AirVPN server(s) for Tor exit node(s). Perhaps this is because it greatly increases the risk of getting listed on spamlists, having the server seized, sites blocking the server, server being detected as a proxy, etc.

 

In fact, I believe the (now withdrawn) server Rastaban was used as a Tor exit node and got shut down, because of unrelated reasons. But perhaps this played a small part in the ceasing of the server. Using AirVPN for Tor exit node(s), is borderline disrespect to the users on the server effected as it degrades their performance.

The reason it's there is because one user found it annoying to suffer from blocks, then I wrote a wall of text outlining why we suffer from exit nodes being run behind AirVPN servers and people agreed by the dozen. We wrote this into the Enter page, literally.

I don't say Rastaban was old hardware, but.. old hardware. You even commented on it, how come you believe it was seized?

I do not think that Rastaban was seized. I am simply saying that aside from it being shut down because it was old hardware, perhaps users were reporting site blocks on the server and perhaps that influenced their decision further, to shut Rastaban down. Or perhaps there was complaints of abuse coming from Rastaban (totally possible if there was a Tor exit node being ran off that server, I confirmed that it was indeed an exit node). I also agree that users should not run Tor exit nodes through Air, it is borderline blatant disregard for the hard work Air does. After all, many use this service to get the (in Air's words ) "air to breathe the real internet". So it won't do much good if servers are plagued with site blocks, down time, etc.

 

Side note: Does Air use their own hardware in their Sweden location?

I agree with you on the exit node part. I've got a feeling that the number of TOR exit nodes behind AirVPN drastically decreased since the aforementioned thread. People see the problems or are "persuaded" to not even try launching a node.
