On January 21st, 2025, Cloudflare placed a phishing warning on Our World of Text after an unknown party hit the site with false reports. Six days later, that same party had also reported OWOT's sister website Your World of Text.

Due to Cloudflare's poor customer support system, both communities had difficulty removing the warning from their sites. But OWOT developer FP and YWOT creator Andrew Badr were able to file disputes with Cloudflare, leading their warnings to be removed on March 11th and April 9th respectively.

In the intervening time, the two World of Text communities took part in countless jokes at the expense of Cloudflare's unreasonable policies.
