What is the issue you’re encountering

Received cloudflare-related error when accessing leiterreports.typepad.com. All users of typepad encounter this error.

Website owners can literally do what they want to do with their websites, that’s beyond the control of Cloudflare, even when the website owner choose to use Cloudflare.

Contact the website owner, and at the bare minimum, include the Ray ID you see on the error page, and they will be able to dig deeper in to the situation with you.

I wrote to [email protected], assuming someone will read this. It looks as though typepad uses Cloudflare’s intrusion detection system. Is that not correct? Typepad is a commercial blogging site.

The correct email address is [email protected]. They now have my report of a domain-wide error. It’s true that if Typepad uses Cloudflare’s intrusion detection system, Cloudflare has nothing to do with it? Somehow this strikes me as unusual.

It’s not unusual. Cloudflare protection settings are under the exclusive control of the site operators that choose to use Cloudflare tools to protect their sites. Only they can lookup a Ray ID to see why a connection was blocked and only they can alter their Cloudflare rules to allow the connection in the future.

OK thank you–now I understand (I’m repeating a remark by a nationally recognized mathematics professor in response to his question to an internationally recognized mathematics professor years ago). It was on Typepad’s end.

In other news, I’m happy with Zero Trust on my system.
