This is obviously not Cloudflare's fault, but I wonder why they don't just mask their identity (e.g. by using a random AWS IP address) when querying archive.is?

AFAICT this wouldn't "violate the integrity of DNS and the privacy and security promises we made to our users" and would solve a big pain point of using 1.1.1.1.

I'm not affiliated with CF at all, but if I were I would oppose that idea on a couple levels.

Philosophically I think that lacks respect for the site owner and it would be wrong to deceive them and go against their wishes.

Pragmatically that sounds like a giant maintenance pain in the ass to manage, and not worth the time/money to make somebody's site work who actively doesn't want it to work.
