Due to the popularity of https://ifconfig.co (and increase in abusive traffic patterns) I had to put it behind Cloudflare some time ago. I have very little control over the heuristics Cloudflare uses to show that captcha and I have no interest in manually whitelisting IPs/subnets/ASNs.

If Cloudflare always gives you a captcha, I would suggest running echoip yourself (it can e.g. easily be deployed for free on Heroku), or using another similar service.

Thanks for understanding!

Well I do understand, however your guidelines included on the front page are not working right now, and if they might not work in the future it might be a good idea to take them down, so they won't confuse people who might not understand why whose command are not working.

You don't have to whitelist IP addresses. Just whitelist the "T1" country in the control panel. For anyone else who sees this. Use ifconfig.me. they don't have this Cloudfail bull****.
