Hey guys, For my home server I am using a Cloudflare domain name to access it, but I noticed today that my connections are secured using the Google Trust Services LLC certs, rather than the Let’s Encrypt certs Nginx Proxy Manager uses… so I’m assuming that cloudflare is having a ball sniffing all my traffic before forwarding my requests to my server…

Is there a way around this? Do other registrars do this??

Thanks!

    Ah I see, thank you for the reply!

    What would you recommend? I like the idea of the privacy but having that security does also sound good…

      The way I see it, using their Zero Trust tunnels and such, the benefits out weigh any perceived threat from them. They handle so much traffic anymore, my little bit of data isn’t even going to be a small blip in their infrastructure. They assess the traffic for threats on the fly, they aren’t going to attempt to keep a copy of everything their system see’s, that would be just way to much to deal with. Hell of a lot better than a marketing company (Google) holding your email and the like.
