Yep. Same for most of Asia too.
Cloudflare's filters are basically straight up racist.
I have stopped using so many sites due to their use of Cloudflare.

If 90% of your problem users come from 1-2 countries, seems pretty sensible to block that country. I know I have 0 paying users in those countries, so why deal with it? Let them go fight it out doing bot wars in local sites
Keep in mind, this is literally why stereotypes and racism exists. It’s the exact same process/reasoning.
No, racism would be “I won’t deal with customers of Chinese ethnicity irrespective of their country of operation”.
Blocking Chinese (or whatever) IPs because they are responsible for a huge amount of malicious behavior is not racist.
Frankly I don’t care what the race of the Chinese IP threat actor is.

Well, not racist per-se - if you visit the countries (regardless of race) you’re screwed too.
Geo-location-ist?
