    We just finished checking, just in case, and no site on Cloudflare had this set as default. They were all off. I double-checked with the sysadmin, and he didn’t do anything, so it was off by default, and we’re talking about a bit over 1,000 websites.

    That said, I remember this happened with a small batch at the very beginning, and they changed it because people complained. Maybe there were some leftovers?
