EEVblog counters now at minus 90% of traffic with active security verification

[Kiriakos GR]

In our planet I am fully aware, that they are only two web spaces, these having content relative to test and measurement equipment.

EEVblog this started two years ahead than ittsb.eu
Even my self, I acted as supporter of this project, for two years.

Unfortunately SMF forum engine, this is a tweak able code, and many features they can be altered in a negative way.
Other than basic software code,  the Forum owner he can use ADD-ON packages, these designed to offer and a feature ... a function. 
One of these features, this is a cheat, this demonstrating more logged members, and fake numbers of active users.
The outsiders they get the impression of a super active community, regarding logged people,  when actually this is an illusion.         
EEVblog it did use this software for many years. 

This week at EEVblog they did something new.
They activated cloudflare this Performing security verification     Are you a HUMAN?

The outcome:   minus 90% of traffic with active security verification 

At ITTSB Europe, I had never use this old cheating plug-in, this demonstrating fake number of logged members.

Long story in sort,  at least my self, I am fully aware that test and measurement equipment blogs and resources, they are not highly popular projects.
These cannot compete at gaining advertising funds due their popularity.

But I have record and another tragic fact,  German oscilloscopes manufacturer, he was demanding from the blogger, him having 100.000 of followers in YouTube, in order of him to receive a free product sample for an review. 

Quick conclusion:
I will speak about ITTSB.EU alone,  in the world of websites, anything ending in .com, this is highly tracked by all sort of sources.
By choice I kept the  .EU only, and I kept doing my job with out to care of web statistics.

Under up front payment, I will accept to review your unpopular test and measurement equipment.
This is my active policy in the past ten years, and its not going to change.
