What are the steps to reproduce the issue?

I had zero traffic show up in my Google analytics since April 1st. Then today, I went into Google Analytics, into data streams, to see what was up, and try to scan my site. It would come back as “Tag missing”. Only when I disabled CF, would it show up again. After some troubleshooting, the culprit is Bot Fighting Mode which blanket blocks ALL bots (even the known/trusted-bots).

I use custom rules to JS-challenge all traffic that is not “Known Bots” on all my sites, and this new Bot Fight Mode feature was a total surprise, in that it would block even Google analytics and microsoft clarity.
