If you're interested this guy has a really good response to exactly that question

One reason to dislike them is that they're the NSA's favourite MITMiddleman.

Do we have proof?

This is an American company that strips SSL from many, many medium value targets; if they aren't thoroughly owned then the surveillance state is being negligent.

A paranoid man would go even further than that and assume that monitored DDoS-proofing goes hand in hand with targetted, state-sponsored DDoS attacks.

I don't dislike them because of shitty services or customer support or anything. In fact, in those regards they are pretty awesome. It's just a privacy thing. For details see the other responses.

How is that a defense?
